O uso de jogos didáticos no ensino das operações básicas no 3º ano do ensino fundamental: uma pesquisa bibliográfica

Abstract

The use of educational games constitutes an important strategy for learning fundamental mathematical operations in the early years of elementary school. Thus, the general objective of this research is to analyze, through bibliographic research, how educational games contribute to the learning of basic operations in the 3rd grade of elementary school. The methodology used to develop this work is bibliographic research, through searches in the Periodicals Portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), for articles from the last 5 years, using the following descriptors: educational games, mathematics teaching, basic operations, early years of elementary school. Through the analysis of eight (8) selected articles, advantages were identified such as the integral development of students, promotion of motivation, socialization, development of autonomy, teamwork, in addition to the appropriation of the concepts of basic operations, and challenges, such as the lack of initial and continuing teacher training for the use of these strategies and lack of adequate materials and resources. It is important that teachers reflect on their practice and seek to use, within the possibilities, educational games for learning fundamental operations.
