Abstract

The study analyzed the production and circulation of materials for teaching reading and writing, which were disseminated in primary school in the municipality of Paranaíba, State of Mato Grosso do Sul, between 1928 and 1961. We considered as main sources of textbooks booklets, paleographers, reading books, examining them according to their nature and social agents involved. These sources are complex objects, the result of a set of relationships. It was considered the concept of function (Choppin, 2004) to analyze the investment that was made in the period, to teach reading and writing in the light of these devices. The results indicate that textbooks circulated in that context and broadly formed the school culture in Paranaíba at the time.
