Histórias infantis nas aulas de matemática uma abordagem com jogos elaborados no powerpoint para o ensino da álgebra

Abstract

From a very early age, the child is already involved with the universe of reading in different contexts, whether through posters seen on the streets, cooking recipes that their mothers use or even children's stories that have several objectives, such as, they can also involve some concepts mathematicians, but with the onset of the pandemic, it became difficult to work with such didactic resources, making it necessary to resort to technological tools that could assist in the Teaching and Learning process. Thus, it is necessary to develop inclusive strategies, that is, easily accessible to the student teacher, who for the most part do not master the use of new software, as it is known that such current tools are not yet fully inserted in the school space. In this sense, PowerPoint can be easily accessed for the development of activities that bring possibilities for the continuity of the pedagogical work with students, because in addition to slides, as it is widely used in the classroom, it also presents functions that promote the creation and constructions of educational games. In this way, with the concern to promote possibilities of Teaching and Learning Mathematics, this research has as its problem “what are the contributions that the use of games built in Power Point, based on children's stories, that involve algebra with a focus on sequences, bring for the Teaching and Learning of Mathematics, based on problem solving, in the Literacy Cycle?”. The research will be of a qualitative nature based on the methodology of Didactic Engineering, in which students will participate in activities involving games built in PowerPoint. The participating subjects will be students of the 3rd year of the Early Years of a school in the Municipal Network of Paranatama PE. To obtain the data, diagnostic activities (initial and final) were used. The Thematic Units covered are Numbers and Algebra, since the mathematical content covered refers to the skills of the National Common Curricular Base – BNCC, which are related to the content of Figural and Numerical Sequences present in the Literacy Cycle. It is necessary to highlight that, although much of the content highlighted is in the field of Algebra, the Educational Product of this dissertation also brought other objects of knowledge, after all, many children's stories have vast possibilities. In short, the main results of the research show how much children's stories in the classroom influence the learning of mathematical content, with PowerPoint being a great facilitator in this process. In this way, it is possible to observe from the study carried out that the combination of such devices significantly helps the Teaching and Learning process.
