O ensino de português como língua de acolhimento para uma família síria refugiada em Bagé-RS

Abstract

The number of people seeking refuge in Brazil is increasing, according to the Ministry of Justice, this year 10,145 people, 82 different nationalities, have been recognized as refugees. As soon as they arrive in Brazil they face the challenge of communication, insufficient or no knowledge of the official language of the country. As was the case of the Syrian refugee family, composed by the father, mother and three daughters, in the city of Bagé - RS. The present research had as objective, based on journals written by the researcher, with reports about the interaction with the family since 2016, in the context of Portuguese teaching, to record, through an ethnographic perspective (FONSECA, 1999), our approximation process of the family concerned. Still, we intend to record how a proposal for a host institution is being built through Portuguese language teaching, within the experience of the researcher and reports of experiences of teachers who are part of the Grupo Idiomas sem Fronteiras- Português como Língua Adicional (IsF-PLA) da Universidade Federal do Pampa – Campus Bagé, which extends into a cultural context of family integration. From the systematization of the data it was possible to identify that our teaching practices were changing as we approached the family,adapting and fit in the planning according to the linguistic-cultural needs of the students. In this way, we come to the teaching Português como Língua de Acolhimento (GROSSO, 2010).
