This essay was developed in the perspective to think in quality of the teaching and learning of Geography for blinds in Francisco Beltrão-PR. For this propose, from the reality of schools, the necessity of building of tactile educational materials that allow the orientation. The search has three specific objectives: to identify how is the teacher's mediation in the process of the teaching and learning of Geography for blinds; To understand how is the spatial location of the geographical phenomenon represented in map; to establish the articulation between matter and form, by means of cartographic language, for that geographical term be built, with approach for the inclusive perspective in Brazil and the progress according with the laws. The search has the hypothesis that there is the necessity to form one context more accurate of situation of education theses subjects, just as well, in necessity for change in form of to teach in mainstream education schools. The theoretical approach was guided in Vygotsky that investigated the process of school inclusion, just as well in teaching and learning of Geography.

The activities with maps mediate the process of investigation how the blind student understands geographical area by means of route: house until the school, front of school until the classroom; in classroom and house until downtown Francisco Beltrão. From now, education materials were building to mediate the understanding of location of student, since the Geography is built from of events off classroom. This way, the results of search were the limitations of blind students, as absence of vision, can be overcome, provided realize the process of interaction of subjects with social environment, to have domain of cartography language and with the use of tactile educational materials.
