ResumoI examine how neuroscience contributes to the understanding of the processes involved in emergent literacy and reading and to the understandind of recycling of neurons in the left ventral occipitotemporal region for the recognition of invariant features that distinguish the letters between them, and for the recognition of letters and graphemes associated with phonemes with the function of distinguishing meanings. In this region there are projections for areas that process verbal language and meaning: such processes occur in parallel, with simultaneous inputs and outputs information. Recent findings suggest the best methods for emergent literacy and the development of skills in reading and writing, allowed because human neurons are endowed with plasticity for learning new recognitions. It should be noted the more complex learning: overcoming the symmetrical processing of light signals to which neurons of vision are originally programmed.
