DEFICIÊNCIA VISUAL E ENSINO: LITERATURA INFANTOJUVENIL E INCLUSÃO

Abstract

The objective of this work is to promote the inclusion of visually impaired students via a structured didactic sequence in experiences through children's literature in the final years of elementary school. To do so, we use the Turma da Mônica comic entitled Dorinha, a nova amiguinha (2009), by Maurício de Sousa, and the children's book A Neta de Anita (2017), by Anderson de Oliveira. We know that for a tangible inclusion to occur, the entire school community needs to be prepared, from the physical spaces, to the qualification of teachers and other school employees, however, our focus here is on the students who will receive the a visually impaired colleague, that's why we consider it crucial to work on this theme in the classroom, developing or improving skills to instigate inclusion. Thus, we rely on Candido (1989), who talks about the capacity that literature has to humanize, as well as Coelho (2000), Zilberman (2005) and Lajolo (2018), who declare that children's literature can help in training of children and young people, and we use the concept of experience developed by Del Prette and Del Prette (2011).
