It was used the qualitative approach, with the information collected through semi-structered interviews, and interpreted according to the content analysis. The participants were three Physical Education teachers and twelve students from this subject in the final years of primary school in three public schools from Caçapava do Sul. Through the investigation it was possible to notice that the teachers and the students that allowed this analisys neither develop nor comprehend with clarity the meaning and the objectives of the reflexive-critical learning.
