Abstract

This research aimed to understand how the methodologies and strategies of Portuguese language teaching, through the textual genres, are developed for the deaf in inclusive classrooms in the 1st grade of High School, in a state school in Aracaju-Sergipe. It is justified by the teachers' complaint about the challenge to find a methodology of Portuguese language teaching for the deaf, due to their difficulty with reading, interpretation and writing, factors that require courses that train teachers capable of dealing with the school reality According to the diversity of students. It is based on studies by Alvez et al (2010) on social inclusion; In the concepts of methodologies and strategies developed by Brown (1994); In the concept of textual genres of Marcuschi (2010) and Porto (2009); And Salles (2004) on the teaching of Portuguese Language for the deaf. In the methodology of the research, this is a case study developed through an interview with two teachers of Portuguese Language and an interpreter of Libras. In this way, the research sought to reflect on a teaching methodology that is in line with the needs of deaf students, and the following results were found: Teachers use methodologies and strategies through textual genres in Portuguese language teaching, which are only intended for listeners. However, the reflection presented in the teachers' speech shows the concern with a shared methodology, that is, for both the deaf and the hearing, as well as showing that both teachers and interpreters need continued qualification and education in the area of deaf education, As well as to acquire the habit of reflection on how to improve teaching-learning according to the students' performance.
