With record in field diaries, all material collected was categorized by content analysis and discussed in the light of the chosen literature. Noteworthy are positive relationships between teachers and children, expressed by the actions of children to go to school and the enables the exchange of knowledge among peers and learn school knowledge. The results also revealed difficulties in pedagogical practices with the rural population inserted in the urban school, especially in differences in living contexts that pervade the countryside where children live.
