Abstract

This study deals with the main characteristics about the inclusive education for deaf students in the classroom. Several considerations are shown through this essay. The thoughts mentioned are expected to be easy for the reader understanding and able to raise the awareness and critical thinking according to the inclusion model for deaf students in public schools in Brazil. Inclusive education is considered to be the method of inclusion of learning disorders in elementary and high education. This discussion is directed to the variety of implications about geography teaching for deaf students. The education for deaf students should be carefully observed since the educational proposals directed to this group have the goal to make possible the total development of their capacity. However, it is not what happens in classrooms. This essay aims to apply a variety of methodologies for geography teaching in classrooms with deaf and hearing students in order to investigate the importance of each pedagogical possibility applied, and check if it is possible to use them in classroom with both groups of students.
