Abstract

The purpose of this article is to foster the discussion of the language variations regarding the occurrences of verbal agreement. Therefore present an approach of the normative grammar as opposed to modern grammar and the manner in which this subject is shown in textbooks of elementary school focusing on the variationist view of the language, according to which the agreement rules are variables and can be implemented or not as a function of different and diverse linguistic and extra-linguistic factors. Finally, still present suggestions of activities that enable this discussion in the classroom in order to provide the student with learning which are considered all aspects of the language, whether guided the teachings of the normative grammar or sociolinguistic variationist.
