Abstract

This study aims to make a linguistic analysis, in a semantic-discursive perspective, of the assumptions that are encoded in the question-answer pair (P-R) in the classroom discourse in terms of Ducrot (1987), Levinson (1983), Moura (2006). For this, we made an analysis and a description of the interrogative utterrances, qualitatively, using data which are part of the corpus The Study of Discourse Interaction in classes of elementary school (Cf. Santos, 2002), consist of ten classes recorded, to identify the interrogative contexts in which the assumptions are encoded; and the relationship that these establish with the activities developed in the classroom. The results show that the assumptions encoded in the questions are related to the structuring of the discourse, with regard to return information given, to project  the topic that will be developed and establish contact with students through interactivity.
