Practical chemistry classes in High School are extremely important for student’s comprehension since this subject is basically an experimental science. With the progress of inclusive education in public and private schools a reformulation of the pedagogical practice of chemistry teachers and the preparation of a specific materials which meets the diverse needs of students concerning the theoretical and experimental studies, has been required. Given these considerations, the aim of this study is to develop and evaluate an inclusive teaching kit on Arrhenius’ Theory of Electrolytic Dissociation in a group of 1st year of High School integrated with the technical course in Music at Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Paraíba (Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia), campus in João Pessoa. The teaching kit was prepared with accessible and low cost material, and it is accompanied by an instructive booklet written in Braille and sighted written. Throughout the chemistry classes about the subject mentioned, both visually impaired and sighted students, could use the kit to help them to establish significant correlations between the experiment and the theoretical concepts during the learning process. The students’ learning was quantitatively and qualitatively evaluated, as well as for the efficiency and accessibility of the teaching material. It has come to the conclusion that the teaching kit is accessible to all students, pointing therefore to the aspirations of inclusive education. As a result of these observation and evaluation, it is noteworthy the relevance of the teaching kit in class, providing accessible experiential activities for both visually impaired and sighted students, in addition, it highlights the significant results regarding the comprehension of the Arrhenius’ Theory of Electrolytic Dissociation by visually impaired students.
