Résumé
The lexicon, in a broad sense, is the starting point for producing and understanding the structures of a language. Therefore, lexical competence represents the knowledge of the structure and functioning of the lexical system, according to which it can be effectively used by speakers to produce and understand texts. Working with this subsystem of the language in the classroom is essential because of its impact on text comprehension and production, but also because it is an indispensable cognitive tool in the acquisition of new knowledge. Having deficiencies in this competence would have significant repercussions on text comprehension and production. Knowing the difficulties that students present with respect to lexis allows us to design a systematized work with vocabulary so that students can strengthen their reading competence. This is the objective of the project we are carrying out, "The role of lexis in the comprehension and production of literary texts" (framed in the project "Critical reading as a strategy for the re-signification of literature in the classroom"). In this communication we will present the results of an action-research that focused on increasing students' reading competence through the elaboration and application of didactic sequences oriented to the development of specific lexical strategies, according to the theoretical framework adopted. It was also aimed at enriching and integrating the mental lexicon in order to transform it into increasingly broad and complex cognitive schemes, which contribute to the improvement of comprehension and production of texts in general and literary texts in particular.
