Abstract

When realizing that the students do not usually see applications of the contentsthatthey study, and there are teachers that opts for the traditional class, noticedinthecontextualization a different form of ministering contents, using somethingpresent inthe daily life of the students. Thus, the class to be contextualized their realitymakesitmore dynamic and attractive for the students. The present research aims toapplythetechniques used by bricklayer to calculate the amount of material spent intheconstruction of a house (walls and ceiling) in the classroomas ateachingmethodology. To do this, it is necessary to verify how bricklayer calculatetheamountof material used in the construction of a house, to analyze the level of students' knowledge of area calculation, to associate bricklayer techniques withtheareacontent and to apply them in the classroom as a teaching methodology andsizethebenefits of ethnomathematics for learning the area calculation. In thesearchforinformation, a bibliographical research was carried out in thefieldofethnomathematics, contextualization, calculation of area and mathematicsof thebricklayer, as well as interview with bricklayer seeking to understand theproceduresused by them. This work was applied in a state school in the city of SãoRaimundoNonato Piauí, where he sought to contextualize the calculation of areas therealityofthe mason in a dynamic and interesting way. Faced with this, presents theresultsand discussions about the study carried out, being such satisfactory, becausethestudents presented a significant evolution, in which they are exposed ingraphsandtables
