GUARDA, Nathália Silveira da  e  DELIBERATO, Débora. Caracterização dos enunciados de um aluno não-falante usuário de recurso suplementar de comunicação durante a construção de histórias. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2006, vol.12, n.02, pp.269-288. ISSN 1413-6538.

Narratives can connect diverse elements and, thus, promote the construction of vertical and horizontal sentences, mediated by the interlocutor. This research aimed to analyze the extension and the syntactic organization of narrative statements constructed by a non-speaking student who used Augmentative and Alternative Communication devices. Graphic Symbols from Picture Communication Symbols were selected according to the child's range of interest, his age, schooling and the subject areas he was involved with in school, having been prepared and adapted to his needs, before the actual narrative construction. Using these pictograms as well as verbal and non-verbal resources that are part of the discursive mode, a story could be told by the communication partner, accessed through visual as well as auditory channels. After structuring and re-organizing the various signs into sentences, the student could retell the story. All interactions were filmed and complemented with notations in an ongoing journal registry. Analyzing the tape transcriptions and the journal notations enabled us to identify three significant unit stages: 1) Characterization or nature of the constituent elements of narrative statements in: a) the object; b) the graphic symbol; c) writing; d) vocalization; e) representative gesture; 2) Extension of the narrative statements from 1 to 6 elements in sequence and 7 or more elements; 3) Syntactic organization of the elements making up the narratives in a subject - verb - object structure, isolated in vertical sentences and associated in horizontal sentences. The results thus pointed to the broadening and improvement of the syntactic organization and structure of the narrative statements constructed by the student, mediated by the communication exchange partner.
