Teaching Written Portuguese to the Deaf

By Lucimar Bizio

The fact that there were few professionals qualified to work with deaf students caused me concern, as they required specific care, especially because of the difficulties they encountered in entering the world of reading and writing. This gave rise to my interest in studying Portuguese language teaching for the deaf.Living with deaf students, being a Portuguese language teacher in the municipal, state and federal schools, with deaf students included in hearing classrooms, and also in a bilingual school for the deaf, were the motivating aspects for me to start this research activity. The search for literature on teaching Portuguese to deaf people was also stimulating. I considered it important for this research to include texts that dealt with both literacy and later schooling, focusing on the difficulties pointed out by the literature in the field, especially the Brazilian literature. This initial research unfolded into a master's degree project.
