Abstract

The aim of this final paper is to analyze the pedagogical strategies used to promote the learning of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the first year of elementary school in a public school in the municipality of Macapá. With the increasing enrollment of autistic students in schools, understanding and adapting educational practices becomes essential to ensure inclusive and effective teaching. The methodology adopted was collaborative research, divided into three stages: observation, planning, and collaborative intervention. During the process, pedagogical practices were observed, and adapted activities were developed considering the individual needs of students with ASD. In addition, the guide “Pedagogical Guide to the Paths of Inclusion: an introduction to autism for educators” was designed as a support tool, offering practical guidance and initial pedagogical strategies to facilitate the inclusion and learning of these students in everyday school life.. The results showed that the use of visual, sensory, and playful resources promotes inclusion and the cognitive and social development of these students. The study also highlighted the importance of continuous teacher training and the creation of more accessible and welcoming learning environments.
