This research education / intervention is focused to answer the question: How does the theatrical play can promote their work in school? For this picture I drew a background of art education in Brazil, focusing on the history of drama in education. Authors have presented some of theater games, specifying the materials used, the teaching, the teaching procedures. Developed and reported the practical work with a group of seven students (boys) 11 to 13 years old with learning difficulties and attitudinal. This work finds itself placed under the Interinstitutional studies of the Chair Joel Martin, based in the Faculty of Education at PUC-SP and its locus of research EMEF Judge Amorim Lima, public school elementary school located at Rua Professor Vicente Peixoto, 50, Indian Village, California.
