Abstract

This article aims to examine the contributions that reading circles can provide to encourage the reading of children's and young adult works in Basic Education. This research effort arose from the problematic perception that there is a progressive lack of interest in the ancient practice of reading circles in secondary schools, especially in light of the massive insertion of technology in students' daily lives. Thus, this research is justified, since there is a clear need to redefine the use of reading circles in educational contexts mediated and permeated by technology. Thus, through bibliographic research, it uses different theories that deal with this shift in interest and proposes alternatives for maintaining the stimulus of reading in schools. The results, finally, indicated that reading books, enjoying the imagination through different stories and exchanging perceptions among peers are actions that have not been left aside or forgotten in the face of the reinterpreted social context mediated by technologies, but that they only need to consider alternative and mediated ways of reading in order to continue making reading an attractive and meaningful path for today's youth.
