Relações entre a libras e a aquisição da língua portuguesa escrita por surdos

Abstract

This work presents a literature review to contextualize empirical research on the relationship between Brazilian Sign Language (Libras) and the acquisition of written Portuguese by deaf individuals. We intend to analyze this relationship considering the linguistic differences between Libras and written language. In the literature review, we sought to select studies that address this relationship and identify the results found by researchers, aiming to understand how knowledge of Libras can influence the acquisition of written Portuguese by deaf students. Additionally, specific teaching strategies for deaf students were observed, evaluating their impact on the learning process and their effectiveness in promoting inclusive education. This study is relevant because it summarizes various research studies that address the relationship between knowledge of Libras and its influence on the acquisition of written Portuguese by deaf individuals. We hypothesize that considering prior Libras knowledge can benefit deaf students in learning written language, facilitating the transition and making the acquisition process smoother.
