Working on the topic of Sexual Education in schools is challenging and involves several socio-psychological aspects. In this context, an Investigative Teaching Sequence (SEI) was carried out in a state public school with a class from the 8th year of Elementary School, with the aim of approaching the theme of sexuality from a biological, social, political and ethical perspective, the in order to deconstruct myths, prejudices and taboos that surround the issue, providing students with a healthy and safe life perspective, encouraging them to become agents of change, creating an inclusive environment at school and in society. During the execution of the Research Teaching Sequence, students were instructed to proceed in accordance with the principles of scientific research, investigating their own hypotheses and validating them. The data collection procedures for this research involved classroom observations, debate, field diaries, audio recording and interviews. The investigative sequence was divided into four stages: 1. Collection of initial information and definition of the problems to be investigated, this stage beginning with reading and discussing a report on sexuality in schools and preparing anonymous questions that were categorized and organized by the researcher in investigative scripts. 2. Division of groups to work on the investigative scripts, being encouraged to question, raise questions and find solutions to the problems presented in the scripts. 3. Investigation through interviews with health professionals and searching for sources on the Internet. 4. Sharing experiences, challenges and learning, and completing individual questionnaires to evaluate the learning process and the actions taken. Results indicated that the investigative sequence had a positive impact, promoting student engagement, healthy relationships, inclusion, critical analysis, and a broader understanding of sexuality. The students considered that openly discussing sexuality does not influence aspects, on the contrary, the ability to lead a safe and responsible teenage and adult life, being essential to reduce risks, taboos and discrimination associated with sexuality. It is hoped that the results of this investigation will inspire teachers and institutions to adopt similar approaches, contributing to inclusive Sexual Education that is sensitive to the needs of adolescents.
