Experiências em letramento com alunos surdos na educação infantil

Abstract

The purpose of this work brings questions which refer to the literacy production of a deaf student, who attends the Children’s Education. The research was done from some observations at Escola Estadual de Educação Especial Dr. Reinaldo Fernando Cóser, in the City of Santa Maria, RS. During the investigation process, a study of case was done, with qualitative approach, bringing instruments from the use of the field diary and the participated observation. The literacy experiences, carried out in the School, show that the literacy adds a new identity to the group, promoting not only the learning, in the formal knowledge, but also the being, it means, to infer meaning for the reading. It intensifies the citizenship construction, in the writing, in the scope of calculations and numbers. In the increase of this new knowledge, the literacy uses visual and contextualized strategies, through the use of illustrations, newspapers, films, draws, pictures, packagings, which are used as a resource in order to represent different contexts. The literacy, from a visual experience, is the basis of the learning construction for a deaf person, through the acquisition of the sign language, interaction with other deaf person and a listener teacher with moderators of the bilingual proposal. In the bilingual proposal, the ludic guides the activities developed in the Children’s Education, in which the acquisition of the sign language and the value of the deaf culture are the prime.
