Abstract

This article deals with the importance of syntactic awareness in the writing of sentences for literacy. We investigated the 1st year students from three different schools: Group A, students entered in METRAMAR (TREVISAN, 2007), Group B, students who participated in the PECOS and Group C students who have not participated in the program or method. Were performed pre-and post-test of syntactic awareness and writing sentences. The results revealed that groups A and B showed better scores on syntactic awareness, but the writing of Group A showed better performance. It was concluded that it is necessary the systematic teaching of reading and writing sentences in literacy.
