Abstract
We analyzed the educational work in Physical Education (PE) classes by relating it to the purposes of inclusion of students with disabilities at a regular, private school. In general, the research was in line with the critical-dialectical theoretical basis and thus with Kosik’s (2011) method of rising from abstract to concrete. Case study was used via documental study (teacher’s planning, Political-Pedagogical Project and the class’s profiles) and field study focused on: teacher, coordinator, psychologist, principal, and 21 students. After observing 12 lessons, we found that there was approximation with Critical-Overcoming PE through adjustments in lessons planning, activities, and materials used so that students could appropriate content. Analyses of the documents and interviews showed that there was no restriction on participation of students with disabilities, pointing out that inclusive work was accomplished.
