The presented proposals have been developed in a group of the Public School Alceu Amoroso Lima, North of Natal city, with children since six years old, amongst which two considered as being with special needs . This research aims to demonstrate that it is possible to develop with those children the contents of Astronomy, while they participate of the process of literacy and inclusion. From this, we are searching a theoretical-practical contribution so that the Par?metros Curriculares Nacionais (Brazilian Nacional Curricular Guideness) include the referred contents in first cycle of primary school. For the accomplishment of this research, Experiential Astronomy was initially proposed. Later on, many workshops had been carried through (clay, ripping , crepon paper, plasticine, cardboard and gastro-lunar ). All the proposed activities were based on the conjunction of contents, which characterized the interdisciplinarity. Through the approach we adopted and the practices we proposed, we could evidence that not only children considered as being normal , but also that ones who carries special needs could appropriate themselves of our writing code, develop and incorporate a daily relationship close to the stuffs of the sky, learn many information about all of this, besides constructing attitudinal, procedural and conceptual contents / Este trabalho prop?e-se a discutir metodologias e atividades did?tico-pedag?gicas para o ensino de Astronomia no 1? e 2? ciclos do N?vel Fundamental, numa perspectiva de letramento e inclus?o. As propostas apresentadas foram desenvolvidas em uma turma da Escola Estadual Alceu Amoroso Lima, Zona Norte de Natal, com crian?as a partir dos seis anos de idade, dentre as quais duas portadoras de necessidades especiais. Esta pesquisa visa demonstrar que ? poss?vel desenvolver com essas crian?as os conte?dos de Astronomia, enquanto elas participam do processo de letramento e inclus?o. Com isto, busca-se uma contribui??o te?rico-pr?tica para que os Par?metros Currriculares Nacionais incluam os referidos conte?dos no 1? ciclo do ensino fundamental. Para a realiza??o desta pesquisa foi inicialmente proposta uma Astronomia Vivencial. Posteriormente diversas oficinas foram realizadas (argila, rasgadura, papel crepon, massa de modelar, cartolina e gastro-l?nica). Todas as atividades propostas estavam baseadas na conjun??o de conte?dos, o que caracteriza a interdisciplinaridade. Atrav?s da abordagem que adotamos e das pr?ticas que propusemos, constatamos que tanto as crian?as ditas normais, como as portadoras de necessidades especiais, ao mesmo tempo em que se apropriaram do nosso c?digo de escrita, desenvolveram e incorporaram naturalmente uma rela??o cotidiana pr?xima com as coisas do c?u, aprenderam muitas informa??es sobre estas, al?m de constru?rem conte?dos atitudinais, procedimentais e conceituais
