O lúdico na construção do conceito de números para crianças surdas

Abstract

The objective of this work is to reflect on the importance of playful activities in the construction of the concept of numbers for deaf children, with games and games helping in learning and social development. This theme has been a matter of concern for education professionals: the deaf student and the challenges for him to have access to understanding in the teaching of mathematics through Libras in a bilingual perspective. This is a bibliographic research with a qualitative approach, as it contributes to the knowledge about the subject in question, the authors who enriched the study are: Strobel (2008, 2009), Rocha (2008, 2018), Kamii (2012) and others. In this sense, the ludic can be an emancipatory tool in the construction of mathematical concepts for deaf children. Recreational activities, when well applied, are able to help deaf children develop different types of knowledge. For better socialization among the children, the ludic activities allow pleasant moments, allowing the child, while playing, to classify, order, structure, solve small problems and feel motivated to go beyond their own limits.
