A problemática da educação dos alunos com Necessidades Educativas Especiais (NEE),
cujo perfil de funcionalidade comprova um conjunto de limitações acentuadas de caráter
permanente e justifica a construção de Currículos Específicos Individuais (CEI) e subsequentes
Planos Individuais de Transição (PIT), tem motivado as mais diversas reflexões e pesquisas
conducentes a uma maior consciencialização das especificidades destes alunos e, por
conseguinte, a uma atuação mais ajustada das escolas, dos professores e demais agentes
educativos, na resposta às suas necessidades.
A dinamização de atividades científicas de caráter experimental e funcional, em torno da
fermentação alcoólica e láctea, constitui o núcleo de estudo do presente relatório, onde se
assumem os seguintes objetivos: através do trabalho experimental, contribuir para o ensino
das ciências no CEI de alunos com NEE, designadamente sobre aspetos relacionados com a
fermentação e alimentos; desenvolver competências nos alunos com NEE e com CEI que
contribuam para a sua vida ativa e futuro profissional.
A investigação foi aplicada a um grupo constituído por 7 crianças/jovens, 3 do sexo
masculino e 4 do sexo feminino, entre os 12 e os 17 anos de idade, matriculados nos 2º e 3º
ciclos (6º, 7º e 9º anos) do Ensino Básico no ano letivo 2015/2016, com NEE e com CEI, com
frequência em sala adequada ao desenvolvimento das competências definidas no âmbito dos
CEI e do PIT de uma aluna. No âmbito de uma abordagem qualitativa, privilegiou-se o recurso à
observação, com o registo, por meio de grelhas, de dados posteriormente analisados, em
complementaridade com registos das notas do observador participante.
A análise dos dados aponta para a possibilidade da inserção da Ciência Funcional no CEI
de alunos com NEE e com eventual PIT, com a dinamização de um conjunto de atividades
experimentais com manifesta pertinência e proficuidade na matriz curricular e nos objetivos
definidos nos documentos legais que enquadram a especificidade das necessidades educativas
destes alunos e legitimam uma atitude simultaneamente reflexiva e atuante.
The problems of children with special needs whose profile of functionality shows severe and permanent incapacities and disabilities justifies the necessity of doing a special and individual curriculum and eventual individual approval / transition plans. This fact has motivated several different reflections and surveys leading to a better awareness of these children’s specificities/characteristics, and demanding an appropriate performance from the schools, teachers and other participants of the educational process trying to answer to all their needs. Organizing scientific experimental and functional activities, involving alcoholic and milk fermentation is the main aim of the present report presenting the following objectives: Giving a contribute to the teaching of sciences through experimental work within the children with special needs and with the special and individual curriculums; about aspects related to food and fermentation; developing skills in students with special needs and special individual curriculums by giving a contribute to an active life and professional future. This work involved a group of seven children with special needs and individual curriculums aged between twelve and seventeen that attended the 6th, 7th and 9th grades of Basic Education. Students were in a classroom that was appropriated to the development of specific skills defined in their individual curriculums and in one of the students’ transition plan. They were observed and their behaviors were registered in grills of data that were later analyzed with notes added by the participant observer. Data analysis points out to the possibility of including experimental work in individual curriculums of students with special needs and eventually with individual transition plans. This could contribute to the consecution of some of the objectives defined in legal documents that fit the specificity of the educational needs of these students, and that legitimize reflexive and active attitudes.
