Sumario:This systematic review aims to present Brazilian studies that investigate the role of phonological awareness as a way of improving reading comprehension in children during literacy. The search was made in different electronic databases, and the keywords used were: “phonological awareness”, “reading”, “reading comprehension”, and “children”. Based on the inclusion criteria, the search resulted in six papers. The results showed that phonological awareness, in fact, improves not only reading per se, but also the speed of reading and reading comprehension. These results shed some light on the importance of investigations in the area of Applied Linguistics, in order to provide different ways of looking to the relationship between linguistic awareness and reading in first language acquisition.
