This research intends to investigate the predominant pedagogical current in a Portuguese language textbook of the 8th year of elementary school, as well as to analyze their conceptions of reading and grammar and also to discuss/suggest proposals for activities present in the book; check whether textbooks follow a certain pedagogical trend. This will be done through the analysis of a chapter of the textbook of the eighth year of elementary school Português: linguagens – 8º ano. We based our observation predominantly around the analysis and categorization of the exercises, according to the categorization present in Libâneo (2006), the reading concepts of Freire (1989), the BNCC (2017) and the Reference Matrix (2021). We used descriptive research in the methodological approach. The items analyzed revealed that the aforementioned textbook is based on conservative pedagogies. There are suggestions of paths to follow in order to avoid traditionalism. There are also reflections regarding the intention in the elaboration of such a textbook.Acesso AbertoLetrasLivro DidáticoLígua PortuguesaTendências ProgressitasEnsinoTrabalho de Conclusão de CursoCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES::LETRAS::LINGUA PORTUGUESA
