Abstract(s)
A presente investigação procurou ilustrar as interacções desenvolvidas
entre as crianças e respectivas mães, durante a actividade de leitura de livros de
histórias: quais as estratégias mais utilizadas pelas mães; de que modo as crianças se
envolvem neste tipo de actividade e como, posteriormente, recontam as histórias;
existência ou não de uma relação entre o modo como as mães contam as histórias e o
modo como as crianças as reproduzem. Neste estudo participaram duas crianças surdas,
com idades compreendidas entre os 3,5 anos e os 5 anos de idade, e respectivas mães
ouvintes. O estudo consistiu na observação de três sessões de leitura entre a mãe e a
criança, e duas sessões em que cada criança recontou as mesmas histórias a um boneco.
Através da análise de frequências e sequências de comportamento verificou-se que as
estratégias mais utilizadas pelas mães durante a leitura de histórias são as mesmas que
as crianças utilizam, ao recontar as histórias a um boneco: (1) a descrição simples da
acção ou das imagens do livro (2) o apontar para as imagens e (3) o contacto visual.
Apesar das estratégias terem sido as mesmas, verificou-se que o modo como as crianças
recontaram as histórias não foi uma reprodução do modo de leitura das mães.
Implicações para futuras intervenções são referidas no final do estudo.
ABSTRACT: The current investigation explored the interactions between mother and child, during storybook reading: what strategies mothers use during storybook reading; how children are involved during this activity and then, how they read themselves; if there is a relation between how mothers read to their children and how children reproduce the story. Two deaf children, age 3,5 and age 5, and their hearing mothers participated in this study, which consisted on the observation of three sessions of storybook reading between mother and child, and two sessions where each child reproduced the same story to a doll. Based on the analysis of behaviour frequencies and sequences, the results indicated that the strategies most used by the mothers were the same used by the children: (1) simply description of the action or the images of the storybook (2) pointing to the images (3) eye contact. Although the strategies were the same, the results indicated that the way children read was not a reproduction of how mothers read to them. Implications for futures interventions are referred at the end of the study.
