Besides from interviews and dialogued readings of the political project with Pomeranian teachers and management teams of rural schools in Santa Maria de Jetibá, Espírito Santo, that take bilingual children. Observations of their school context were carried out, with entries in a field journal. It was observed that the teachers’ practice value cultures and knowledge, raising their own self-esteem, the children’s and other Pomeranian descendants’.
