Resumo Inglês:
Issues, challenges, and benefits of bilingualism have been frequently discussed in the literature for children who are hearing. This paper outlines the bilingual approaches for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing. Using this framework, we present issues and challenges to consider for transition from the first language in sign to reading and writing in a different language. Finally we present evidence based and promising strategies to assist professionals in supporting language and cognitive development for individuals who are deaf or hard of hearing.
