To achieve the proposed objective, this research intends to (i) expand theoretical discussions and deepen knowledge about reading competence; (ii) analyze how the teacher‘s pedagogical actions related work with reading in classes of the 3rd year of elementary school I are planned, and (iii) produce a pedagogical notebook with suggestions of school practices, mediated by different technological resources, for the work with reading skills, in order to contribute to the continuing teacher education. The study is based on theorists such as Solé (1998), Soares (1998), Chartier et al (1996), Colomer and Camps (2002), Koch and Elias (2006), Ferrarezi and Carvalho (2017), Carvalho (2018) among others. This is an action-research, approved by the Ethics Committee under the number 22870919.9.0000.5148, whose participating subjects were students from two classes of the 3rd year, elementary school I, and the professors of these classes. The data were collected through direct observation in Portuguese language classes and the record in a field diary. Semi-structured interviews and the application of diagnostic activity of reading skills referenced in the Portuguese Language matrix of the National Literacy Assessment (NLA) were also used. The data were analyzed using quantitative and qualitative approaches, with a view to systematizing interventions/strategies to boost the acquisition and development of reading skills in students. The research showed the need for continuing education courses, so that teachers can explore the different technologies for working with reading in the classroom.
