A PRÁTICA PEDAGÓGICA EM TEATRO NA EDUCAÇÃO ESPECIAL – UM OLHAR APURADO A PARTIR DA EXPERIÊNCIA DE UM ESTÁGIO

Abstract

This study aims to analyze and ponder, based on an internship experience, over the possibilities fostered by the use of theatrical language as a tool for teaching people with disabilities at the Centro de Educação Especial da Bahia (CEEBA). It intends to contribute to the discussion on equal rights, valuing Inclusive Education, as well as raising awareness among those involved with Education to be aware of the inherent differences, combating prejudice and discrimination. Thus, we understand that new possibilities for inclusion offer these people adequate conditions for the development of their potential and their integration into the social environment. Keeping in mind the respect for their conditions, they can experience, through Theater classes, experiences and discoveries in a space for significant learning exchanges. Social, economic and cultural inequalities are reflected in all sectors of society, but mainly in Education. Therefore, this study proposes, along with authors from the areas of Theater, Education and Inclusion, the responsibility for the daily challenge to be faced of getting more and more awareness about differences.
