The school inclusion of students with autism spectrum disorder is a controversial topic that has been widely discussed in academic circles and by the society. The teaching experience and investigation carried inside this thematic concludes that students with autism spectrum disorder are being enrolled in regular schools. Given this fact, it sought to through this research, reflect to understand, if the actions taken by teachers are meeting the educational needs of these students in special classes and regular classes. We opted for the multiple case study, by having like research subjects, four students with autism, two frequenting regular class and two special class. Through observation of the trajectory and performance of these students and their teachers in class, we concluded the urgency to reframe a pedagogical practice that come to stimulate and support the learning of the person with autism spectrum disorder and, also, that the inclusion of these students in the class of the regular network is possible, by setting the best environment to develop their potential, since for many of them is the only place of social interaction and learning.

Keywords : School Inclusion; Regular Class; Special Class; Autism Spectrum Disorder.
