O uso do dominó de equações no ensino de equações polinomiais do 1° grau na turma de 8° ano a de uma escola estadual de São Raimundo Nonato-PI

Abstract

The main objective of this research was to investigate the main contributions that the use of the domino equation game as a didactic and pedagogical tool brings to the learning of 1st degree polynomial equations by 8th grade students at the Professor José Leandro Deusdará School Unit. It was developed with 16 students from an 8th year elementary school class at a state school in the city of São Raimundo Nonato-PI. This research was carried out in 4 stages, namely: An expository and dialogued class to review the solving formula of 1st degree equations and the elements that make up this mathematical sentence, development of the game, application of a questionnaire consisting of 5 questions to evaluate the contributions of the game, and a learning activity consisting of 5 questions to analyze the students' learning signs after studying aided by the researched teaching method. Once these steps were completed, the data obtained was reviewed and it was observed that the use of the game as a methodological resource made the class more attractive, from the students' perspective, and encouraged their active participation, promoting meaningful learning. Therefore, it can be considered that this teaching proposal was relevant and fulfilled its respective objective.
