O jogo Kenken como instrumento potencializador da aprendizagem das quatro operações matemáticas com estudantes do 6º ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This study course completion (CBT) aims to analyze the game Kenken contributions to student learning from the 6th year, referring to the four basic operations in a public school in the municipality of Guarabira/PB. This research is classified as the goals as an exploratory research and how the data collection o faction-research type. Initially, we did a diagnostic study on the students' knowledge in relation to kenken game that articulates the four basic operations of mathematics with some students from each classof6th grade B, C and D. Then was presented and applied to the game. The results obtained in this work showed that students who have some familiarity with the basic operations and enjoy games involving numbers, the game enhances learning in mathematics, but if you do not know the basic operations, hinders there solution of the game. In this context we can see the game as a motivator for teaching and learning in mathematics element. To support our work, we use as theoretical framework some well-known authors such as: Marilia Toledo, Jean Piaget, among others JuliaBorin. Finally, we understand that the knowledge built using the game are more indicative for a more significant learning of the four basic operations, but care to be using teaching methodologies that encourage the construction of mathematical knowledge.
