Resumo
A inclusão procura responder a todas as crianças com necessidades educativas especiais, que têm direito aos serviços educacionais apropriados às suas dificuldades, recebendo apoios adequados às suas características e défices, com ajudas especializadas.
A aprendizagem de um sistema de comunicação alternativo e aumentativo, o PECS, por uma criança com perturbação do espectro do autismo, é um instrumento que contribui para melhorar a sua comunicação, bem como facilitar a sua inclusão num jardim-de-infância de educação regular, como pudemos constatar com o trabalho que realizamos este decorreu no âmbito da sua família e de um Jardim de Infância.
No Final da nossa intervenção, quer o pai da criança quer esta, ficticiamente designada como Miguel adquiriram competências que lhes permitiram comunicar mais facilmente.
Relativamente ao trabalho desenvolvido no jardim-de-infância, o PECS pareceu facilitar a comunicação e acentuar a sua reciprocidade, pois constatou-se que o Miguel comunicou com as outras crianças e estas comunicaram com ele.
The inclusive education looks for the integration of all the children with special education needs in regular classes, thus enabling them to attend the most suitable education services to their handicaps. That means receiving proper and specialized help from special education teachers with their features and deficits. When learning an alternative and augmentative communication system, the PECS, a child with autistic syndrome can improve his communication skills both in family and school environments and make his integration in a regular kinder garden an easier task. In the end, both the child´s father and the child, fictionally named Miguel acquired skills which enable them to have a better interaction. To make verbal or PECS mands is one of the first speaking skills that occurs in childhood. The PECS mands, being made by a child that is initiating the speaking process increases his language and self help ability, improving his relationship with the other people involved, whether they are his parents, his technician, his infant teacher and assistant or his classmates. Regarding the daily interactions that take place in kinder garden, we can say that PECS made it easier to communicate and it must be said that there were mutual interactions where Miguel was not the only one to approach the other children, they also felt his need to do so and interacted with him, using PECS. In fact, Miguel´s inclusion in a regular class was possible only because of that mutual interaction.
