Abstract

The present research is the result of a conclusio work of the Special Night Education Course linked to the Education Center of the Federal University of Santa Maria, developed during the year 2018. Its general objective is to understand the challenges of the children identification process with High Abilities / Giftedness indicators, enrolled in a child education class considering multi -age classes. The research was carried out on the subject with the teacher regent. As methodology, we support some authors as: Gardner (2000); Renzulli (2014); Freitas and Pérez (2012); Winner (1998); Vieira (2005); Mata (2015) and Gil (2008). As research instruments, the semistructured interview was preferred, based on a script, and the interview was recorded and performed with the teacher in charge of the class. From the analysis of the teacher's interview, three categories were organized as follows: what is known about high abitities / giftedness; indicators of early childhood education; the challenge of the AH / SD high abitities / giftedness identification process in a multi-age group. As analyzed about what the teacher knows about the student with high abitities / giftedness indicators, the lack of knowledge is still present.
