Abstract:
Reading and writing process of indigenous students should be questioned in relation to the school failure. This is applied to students who do not reach the expectations established by the learning system, whose parameter is grounded in education for non-indigenous people. This study aimed to discuss the alleged school failure in the fields of reading and writing of Guarani, Kaiowá, and Terena indigenous students, in Dourados/MS. It is based on the sociopolitical perspective of Cultural Studies, and Literacy Studies, choosing ethnography as the investigative way.
