This field study aims to promote the formation of readers and writers through the epistolary textual genre, even in times of predominant technology. The guidelines are based on the theories of Soares (2009) and Bakhtin (2003), the writing hypotheses of Ferreiro and Teberosky (1999), and the importance of writing and reading in life, according to Morais (2003). Adopting the methodology of field study and qualitative approach, we examined how students of the 6th grade of a public school in Pará and in the age group of 11 to 13 years approached these areas of learning, using episodes of Turma do Chaves (The Kid) related to letters. We highlighted the need for an interdisciplinary approach, with trained teachers, to promote reading and writing in all subjects.
