O uso do Tangram no ensino de matemática no 6° ano

Abstract

Considering that mathematics is one of the subjects that students present difficulties, it is extremely important that there is a reflection on how the teaching-learning process occurs, considering that there is not only one way to teach, in any subject, especially in mathematics. So it is necessary that teachers try to diversify the teaching methodologies, in order to benefit not only one group, but most students, considering their needs and difficulties. The present work proposed the use of the Tangram game as a pedagogical tool for teaching mathematics in a 6th grade class. This game aims to develop logical thinking and broaden the students' views on the subject. The game was used as a tool to motivate the interest/curiosity of these individuals with the act of learning, working the contents using the game as pedagogical material, aiming to escape from a traditional teaching model, having as hypothesis that the approach of the content in an abstract way ends up influencing negatively on the students' learning. Keywords: mathematics; game; tangram; learning
