Materiais didáticos manipuláveis: uma reflexão de sua utilização nas aulas de matemática

Abstract

This research consists of a reflection, carried out through a bibliographical research about the use of manipulative teaching materials in mathematics classes, amid the following question: How can the use of manipulative teaching materials contribute to the teaching-learning process in mathematics and which care should the teacher have when using them? Faced with such an inquiry, it was noticed that the use of materials as a pedagogical resource in mathematics classes provides a clear and succinct approach, making math teaching pleasurable and dynamic. Therefore, it should be noted that the data analysis showed that although manipulable teaching materials have their potentialities in the teaching-learning process of mathematics, their use must be thought and planned so that it is capable of producing expressive results. However, it is believed that the relevance of this research will contribute to a reflection on its use in mathematics education
