Abstract: Literacy constitutes an interactive, interdiscursive activity of appropriation of different culturally produced languages. Among them is reading as an artifact present in all activities of literate societies. One of a person's first needs is to communicate, speak, understand and make themselves understood, know how to say what they think firmly and critically and communicate through reading and writing. Learning to speak, read and write become rudiments in the history of teaching, which have not yet been overcome by other needs considered to be more important. In this conception, literacy is teaching to read and write, to criticize and produce knowledge, and not just to teach how to distinguish graphic symbols from verbal language. Being literate means distinguishing and understanding these symbols and being able to produce understandable messages for other literate people, improving understanding between people and increasing their level and quality of life. In this sense, literacy is characterized as a process in which the person learning literacy needs to overcome stages to acquire the necessary skills. Currently, in the literacy process, the child's learning time is respected and the development of reading and writing happens or should happen in the same way as learning to speak, with the development of meaningful activities. Therefore, learning to read and write and how quickly this occurs depends on each child, the environment in which they live, as well as their participation in reading and writing activities. The use of the term literacy appears to arise from the need to recognize and name social practices of reading and writing that are more advanced and complex than the practices of reading and writing resulting from learning the writing system. Therefore, it is a social/collective process (or practice) of democratization of knowledge. Thus, the notion of literacy not only expands the concept of literacy but could strengthen it, rescuing the political, philosophical, dialogical, cultural and ideological dimension. Therefore, this conception approaches literacy not only as a cognitive activity, but also as a process affected by social, historical and ideological aspects.
