Cover of the textbook Hora das Letras - Portuguese - 5th grade, with illustrations by illustrator Eldes

Hora das Letras - Portuguese - 5th Grade is a school project aimed at middle school students, authored by Ana Peixoto Cabral, Filipa Azevedo, and Liliana Oliveira, published by Porto Editora. It was developed based on the Essential Learnings of Portuguese for the 5th Grade (Portugal) and presents work proposals across various areas of the subject: Literary Education, Reading, Orality, Writing, and Grammar.
