O Tangram no processo ensino-aprendizagem de matemática no 1º ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This educational product consists of a Didactic Sequence (SD) for teaching and learning mathematics. According to Zabala (1998, p.18), Didactic Sequences “são um conjunto de atividades ordenadas, estruturadas e articuladas para a realização de certos objetivos educacionais, que têm um princípio e um fim conhecidos tanto pelos professores como pelos alunos” In this way, the didactic sequence aims to organize activities to assist children’s understanding, development and learning. This educational product is linked to the master's research entitled “Tangram as a didactic game for teaching-learning mathematics in the first year of elementary school”. To this end, the research was developed in accordance with the principles of the Postgraduate Program for Sciences and Mathematics, of the Federal Institute of Education, Sciences and Technology of Goiás - Câm-pus Jataí, within research line 3: Organization School, Teacher Training and Education for Science and Mathematics, highlights: Curriculum and Assessment; Language, Culture and Society; Education and Classroom Policies and Management. The general objective of the dissertation was to identify to what extent the didactic game Tangram contributes to the teaching-learning of Mathematics in the early years of Elementary School. The aforementioned educational product contains a didactic sequence composed of six Pedagogical Action Plans (PAP), with activities related to the teaching-learning of mathematics exploring Tan-gram. The objective of this SD is to develop games with Tangram to implement mathematics teaching-learning in the first year of elementary school. To this end, it is composed of six moments of pedagogical action (MAP). According to Moreira (2016), Tangram is a type of puzzle made up of seven pieces, originating from a square, it is a Chinese game, and it is possible to assemble around 1700 figures, including objects, plants, numbers, people and geometric figures. According to the author, this game has rules which determine that all pieces must be used and played without overlapping.
