One of the greatest challenges in education nowadays concerns the inclusion of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and the stimulation of their oral production (given the idiosyncrasies they present regarding communication, interaction, and interests). The objective of this piece of research is to present strategies (as education products) for the integration of students with ASD to the school context. The strategies were organized according to their potential to develop skills related to oral production in the English Language, following directions from the Common National Curricular Basis (BNCC - in Portuguese) for the 6th grade. Having documentary, bibliographic, and comparative research with a qualitative approach as methodological framework, data was collected from the BNCC and journals concerning the integration of students with ASD. The approximation with oral skills enabled general strategies for inclusion, in addition to allowing us to understand Mediated Social Interaction in Digital Environments and the History Atelier as options to stimulate discursive interaction, Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) as an option to stimulate oral comprehension, and the Verbal Communication Skills Program (VCS) and Video Modeling (VM) to stimulate oral production. We suggest that the use of the aforementioned strategies should be a customized process, with focus on the reality and degree of complexity of the conditions of each student with ASD.
