This article focuses on presenting an experience report of two English as a foreign language teachers in two private schools of the states of Pernambuco and Paraíba. Both worked the same didactic sequence following the ideas of Dolz, Noverraz and Schneuwly (2011) to address the general theme Thanksgiving Day in a second grade class of Ensino Fundamental – anos iniciais and in a sixth grade class of Ensino Fundamental – anos finais. Through the understanding of the studies of Santaella (2007; 2014), Leffa (1996; 1998), Solé (2014) and Kleiman (2016a, 2016b) the ideas of the importance of reading, contextualization and evaluation of the learning process were constructed. At last, some considerations about the final production in each class level were punctuated. The results show that working with reading in English in the classroom brings pedagogical benefits, motivating students to learn, in both segments of elementary school.
