Throughout the last years, interest in and the quantity of studies regarding the evolvement of each school subject with its transformations along time have increased. Motivated by these studies, we directed our attention to the Portuguese language field in the attempt to better know the constitution of this teaching through its textbook observing specifically the organization of the didactic units. It is our aim to investigate to what extent the didactic unit can be perceived as a discourse genre that organizes the Portuguese textbook. The research has a Bakhtinian theoretical background which allows understanding the didactic unit from the starting point of a socio-historical process and the textbook as one of the fundamental means to make sure the acquisition of knowledge within this very process. For the present study, three textbooks from different editions published in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s were analyzed. To support our investigation, we present cross-readings dealing with different historical researches focusing on the school subject of the Portuguese language, the textbook and the didactic unit of Portuguese. The investigation signals that changes which occurred in the process of organizing the didactic units are the result of a socio-historical process that enables small and progressive organizational modifications in the didactic units along the mentioned decades.
