This work’s goal is to reflect about scientific education’s contributions upon the development of people with disabilities in inclusive processes according to the Cultural-Historical Theory. Towards this goal, this article departs from the fundamental understanding that every student can and must learn Sciences, contribute toward each other’s learning, develop consciousness about his place in the world and transform his reality. It situates inclusivity, its approximations and departures from science in its historical process. It problematizes educational inclusivity as a complex, nonlinear and interdependent of different awareness phenomenon. Excluding and segregatory processes, that toil the possibility of a bigger potentiation in atypical developments and impede an experience of sharing in an inclusive collective, present in Sciences’ classes adapted to students with disabilities, are also analyzed. It discusses strategies utilized in Sciences’ classes for presenting, in essence, the reduction of contents and the minimization of complexity; the infantilization and distortion of concepts; the direction exclusive toward functionalities of personal care habits and socialization. Seeking collective possibilities of educational praxis, it presents an interlocution between educational researches that problematize inclusivity’s processes in Sciences’ classes and suggestions of possible paths as a contribution to the field.
