This research studies the curriculum in written records and in interviews held with four teachers from a public school in Rio de Janeiro municipality. Based on Cultural Studies, language plays a central role in the study and is considered in the continuous flow of history and culture and the curriculum is studied as a genre of the discourse, in the perspective of Mikhail Bakhtin s studies. The form and contents of the material studied are not dissociated, but are related to the social, historical and cultural context where they were produced. I am also bringing, as a contribution to the analyses, Michel Foucault s theoretical formulations regarding disciplinary and well as discursive practices and the powers that permeate them. In the records examined, although there are signs of personal styles, if seen from a wider viewpoint, there are also meeting points because all of them refer to the same genre, i.e. the curriculum. In all of them topics related to the curriculum are discussed, materialized in the pedagogic activities of a school. These have been condensed into categories such as: the common knowledges of the school/scholastic knowledge; discipline/lack of discipline; orthographic development; mathematics classes; curricular planning/evaluation. In the research, it was found that the subjects being investigated revealed moments when changes and transformations took place in their own thinking. Their accounts are sometimes descriptive, but principally reflective, offering interpretations, impressions about matters discussed and revealed the distress, afflictions and conflicts in the development of the teaching-learning process, evidencing, at some moments, contradictions inherent to the process of personal development. I must emphasize that this research, when examining the curriculum, did not seek to establish generalizations about the situations observed, which did not prevent, however, some inferences being made. I hope, therefore, that the work done will contribute toward resuming, in the School where the investigation was made, discussions on the curriculum, will help in reflecting on pedagogic practice and also indicate possible directions for public policies, not only curricular but also the continued training of teachers, which I see as complementary fields.
