ROSSO, Aline Casagrande  and  FONTES, Ana Beatriz Arêas Da Luz. Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC), bilingualism, L2 reading and strategies: approaches and discussions. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2021, vol.46, e48573.  Epub Apr 12, 2024. ISSN 1984-6444.  https://doi.org/10.5902/1984644448573.

This research, of bibliographic and documentary character, aims at clarifying if and how the Brazilian Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) addresses the themes of bilingualism, additional language reading and reading strategies in the body of the document. To this end, the five organizing axes of regulation were analyzed, including orality, reading, writing, linguistic knowledge and intercultural dimension, focusing on reading and its consequences: the thematic units, teaching objects and skills, in addition to the specific skills of English language for the Elementary Degree. The conclusions suggest that the document presents a valid debate about the skills that need to be developed in the classroom regarding bilingual development, since it brings ideas for the teacher to expand the students' linguistic potentials. However, the document shows flaws when it does not demonstrate to have a scientific basis in its statements, does not properly develop the concepts related to reading, nor does make it clear what are the objectives from reading in English as L2. In addition, the document's normative character makes teachers’ practice somewhat limited, since the BNCC determines the content inherent to each school year. Authors such as Kleiman (1985; 2011; 2013), Souza and Garcia (2012), Alliende and Condemarín (2005), Craik, Bialystok, and Freedman (2010), Godoy and Dias (2014), Santos (2013) and Grosjean (1997; 2012) participate in the theoretical debate.
