PINHEIRO, Luciana Ribeiro  e  GUIMARAES, Sandra Regina Kirchner. The coherence and the cohesion in opinion texts by 5 TH year elementary education students. Estud. pesqui. psicol. [online]. 2013, vol.13, n.2, pp. 500-523. ISSN 1808-4281.

This paper examines the production of argumentative texts as an activity facilitated by meta-contextual skills related to coherence and cohesion. The central objective of the study was to identify and describe the use of the organizational operators of cohesion and coherence in argumentative texts by 18 students in the 5th year of elementary education at a public school. An intervention was implemented (didactical sequence) and included the use and reflection regarding argumentative and organizational operators as tools to enhance the writing of argumentative texts. Because of the qualitative nature of this research and the participation of a small number of students, conclusions of this study cannot be generalized. However, the didactical sequence proved to be effective both as a research tool and as a pedagogical tool for instruction.   It is believed that this type of intervention can be useful for the continuous diagnostic assessment of learning and difficulties shown by students, subsidizing re-workings in the planning of pedagogical activities aimed at producing argumentative texts.
