This dissertation analyses the process of transposition of aged peoples oral narrative to childrens drawings, by an empirical work where we were able to analyse 453 drawings made by pupils from Rio de Janeiro schools.Inpired by the childhood stories of the aged collaborators, these drawings show narrative capacities, creative qualities and the memory of these stories. The intention is to understand time influences between the period listening to the stories and the transposed drawing. The interference of the teaching and learning process on the drawings, made in a school enviroment and, finally, the relation between the individual and the materials available for this transposition, taking into account the culture, the environment and the level of expertise.
