This article presents a pedagogical proposal that aims to build a multimodal video with the lyrics of Dorival Caymmi's songs, involving the multiliteracy (linguistic, visual, gestural, spatial and audio) in order to develop the communicative capacity of the deaf subjects involved in the teaching-learning process creating contexts of real productions, enabling multiple activities and, above all, activities that value the Bakhtinian principle of interaction, dialogism. The proposal is organized based on the procedures for the presentation of communication situations involving multimodal discursive genres considering students as protagonists of knowledge. The project was developed in the Specialized Educational Assistance - SEA, in the school context that has as a reference a bilingual perspective, where students use the Brazilian Sign Language as their first language (L1) and Portuguese in written form as a second language (L2), involving the areas of Libras and written Portuguese in order to bring deaf children closer to literacy practices. The choice of the author was due to the celebration of the artist centenary, his compositions that portray and value Bahia, the fact that the students are from Bahia and thinking about the level of complexity of the texts appropriate for the understanding of the deaf students in question.
