ABSTRACT

Production of texts in elementary school is a social implement that allows us to

communicate situations, knowledge or feelings in different ways. That is why it is essential
to promote autonomy and knowing about the importance of written expression in our lives.
If children begin their literacy process being aware of the importance of writing, surely in
the future they will be people with great capacity of expression and autonomy to do so.
As primary school teachers we have a huge responsibility to promote, recognize and
participate in the elaboration of good texts, including their properties and be conscious of
its importance, to form intelligent and competent people.
The following document references to important communication texts in our school and
social development, the epistolary texts, which allow us to communicate with people who
are not present but are written in a format and specific purpose. Autonomy is the specific
competence to work in the group, and through a comfortable environment for children are
able to learn, ponder and produce texts independently, aware of the importance of these to
represent different situations. The most important thing is to offer a pleasurable and
required education for children through texts that motivate them to do better every day, to
communicate with different people and interest them.
"Writing letters to friends can be a very enjoyable and fun activity if it breaks with the
apparent difficulty for some people of their development. We think that if children are
instructed how to make them, they can make use of this form of communication freely,
without the restrictions caused by the fear of not knowing how or what to write "Gomez
Palacio, 1995, p. 104).
