Abstract

The research deals with Early Intervention for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Early Childhood Education. The research location was the Carlos Salomão Chaib Basic Education Unit, specifically in two Kindergarten I and two Kindergarten II classrooms, in the morning and afternoon shifts. The research started with the following problem: How can the teacher training process aimed at early intervention for children with ASD in Early Childhood Education be materialized through a Pedagogical Guide, containing pedagogical teaching guidelines for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder? The main objective of the research was: to investigate the teacher training process aimed at early intervention for children with ASD at UEB Carlos Salomão Chaib, with a view to building a Pedagogical Guide. We chose to use Gil's methodology, which refers to qualitative research of a descriptive nature with an applied purpose. It was concluded that the researched school needs greater investments from the perspective of continued training on early intervention in Early Childhood Education to better serve children with Autism Spectrum Disorder. To convey this study to the study participants, based on data analysis, an Educational Product was created, this being a Pedagogical Guide, containing pedagogical teaching guidelines for children with ASD, consisting of eight chapters, containing suggestions for intervention activities early learning and interactive game applications that can be used in the classroom to contribute to teaching work.
