Literatura de cordel como recurso didático no ensino de poliedros

Abstract

This monograph aims to analyze how cordel literature can be established as a didactic resource for teaching polyhedra in elementary school. The main need to address this issue is in an attempt to counteract a decontextualized structure of mathematics education, which normally happens without meaning based on the perspective of banking and reproductive education. To do so, initially, we approach the definitions and characteristics of the cordel and its possibility of being an interdisciplinary content. In a second step, we will bring the definitions and concepts of geometry and polyhedra, and how this content can be worked through string literature. We do not consider this work as complete, but we identified that it presents as a result signs that didactic experiences based on a dialogical process between teacher and student, as well as the exercise of working with the cord in the classroom is a way to break with teaching. Of mathematics in a reproductive perspective of knowledge. Finally, we hope that through this experience, readers will be able to find a horizon of possibilities, which will make it possible to teach Mathematics more pleasurably and with meaning to students.
