Academic studies about immigration processes to Brazil constitute a fertile field for history knowledge, mainly in post-graduation programs. These pieces of research, particularly those that focus on immigrations of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, find little space in school knowledge. Didactic books continue to reproduce superficial and conservative visions, of chronological character, without presenting problems arising from the arrival of those European immigrants to Brazil. This study aims at identifying, through the analysis of didactic material used at schools of Rio Grande do Sul, the absence of a dialog between academic knowledge and Basic Education. The importance of analyzing didactic material and cultural products used by History teachers of Basic Education has become more and more pertinent, in the sense of investigating the concept of historic knowledge, which is produced and diffused in class. In this sense, investigation on teachers' practices, taking this cultural object, allows us to identify some gaps, which can be used to work on teachers' education.
