Abstract

The debate on cultural diversity has been one of the main topics of discussion in the field of education. Law 11.645 / 2008 establishes as mandatory the inclusion of the theme "Afro-Brazilian and indigenous history and culture" in the National Education Guidelines Law of 1996 (LDB 9394 / 96) and in the official curriculum of the educational network. This implies the need to address the issue in the teaching and curriculum of basic education, which covers elementary and secondary education. In this sense, the present study seeks to reflect on the importance of education in the intercultural perspective, facing the presence of different peoples, social groups and cultures in the school context. Faced with this, we are challenged to think how important it is that educational processes work in the perspective of valuing these social groups, their different customs and their ways of being in the world. Starting off this premise, and seeking to contemplate also the aforementioned law, we propose possibilities of working contents that value the indigenous culture and the reality of the students.
