Diseño e implementación de una propuesta pedagógica en lectura recreativa grado cuarto de la Escuela San Luis Gonzaga del municipio de Tocancipá, Colombia

This research, entitled "Design and implementation of a pedagogical proposal in recreational reading in fourth grade of the San Luis Gonzaga School in the municipality of Tocancipá Colombia", arises with the intention of improving how fourth grade children at the San Luis campus, in Tocancipá, understand what they read and also to awaken in them a greater interest in reading. The idea is to change the traditional ways of teaching, putting a more fun, meaningful touch and that fosters community through reading. Using a qualitative approach and the participatory action research method, thirty-eight children between 8 and 12 years old participated. To do this, instruments such as field diaries, talks and classroom records were used. The information was analyzed through qualitative content analysis, going through stages of coding, categorization and reflection to better understand the results. What was found was that the children showed positive changes in their attitudes, habits and skills related to reading. The strategy of reading circles with sessions such as Literary Detectives, Theater of Books, Traveling Books and Graphic Adventures, turned the classroom into a place where children enjoyed, dialogued and collaborated more. This also helped strengthen their empathy, listening, and oral expression. In conclusion, recreational reading turns out to be an effective way to improve reading comprehension and to promote a good school environment. In addition, action research helped me to see my role as a mediator and accompanier in the process as a research teacher, favoring a more reflective, participatory pedagogical practice that generates real changes.
