This study aimed to constitute the history of Physical Education of Vivina Monteiro 1st Grade School and Professora Lourdes Costa School Group, located in the city of Icó-CE (Brazil), highlighting insertion and teaching practice in the first years of implementation. For this, we developed a research of qualitative approach of historical character, using Oral History as a technique. Thus, this study included the intertwining the oral history of two retired teachers who taught at both schools, and the analysis of documents. At Vivina Monteiro institution, Physical Education was introduced in 1976, and at Professor Lourdes Costa School, in 1982. In these schools the teaching practice of Physical Education was based in activities to improve the levels of physical aptitude and performance of motor and sports activities. These findings contribute to the historical comprehension of the Physical Education at schools in Ceará, allowing critical reflections about teachers’ practice over time.
