Abstract

This study aims to highlight the importance of the systematic teaching of the game of Chess in Basic Education, as an integrating axis of the School Curriculum, as its practice in the daily life of schools was verified, the behavior and learning of students who practice the game of Chess suffered. changes and such have contributed positively to the cognitive development of the Basic Education public. Therefore, Chess was conceived as an integrating axis of the School Curriculum in Elementary Education, mainly through the “Novo Mais Educação” Program, implemented by the State Education Department – SEDUC – PI. In the work developed at the Demerval Lobão School Unit, we highlight the influence of the practice of the game of Chess in other areas of knowledge. Thus, it is believed that such a game should be included as an integral content of the Curriculum Component of Basic Education in Mathematics Teaching, in particular. The school will seek, in its physical structure, in order to integrate resources to develop the training of teachers and students, with regard to human, cultural, cognitive and logical-mathematical resources as a premise for the development of students. We randomly select Elementary and High School students, and we separate by level of education the students who will participate in chess classes during their performance at school. The initial idea is to check the progress of students in the following aspects: logical reasoning, concentration, attention, personal organization. Based on these results, we will propose new strategies and practices for the expansion and dissemination of chess in the school environment, in order to maximize mathematics education
