In this article we analyze the experience of young indigenous students and their families in the urban context of Lábrea municipality. We discuss the ideas, beliefs, representations, and attitudes that the Apurinã and Paumari peoples have about their languages and the Portuguese language utilizing the Language Ideology approach. Through an ethnographic method, we observe the routine situations of interaction in the different spheres of social activities: at home, at school, with the "others" and with their relatives for a better understanding of the representations that they have about life in the city and their experiences in urban schools.
