A grandeza tempo nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental: quais saberes os discentes dispõem?

Abstract

The present research is inserted in the context of the teaching of Mathematics in the early years of Elementary School, addressing the axis of Quantities and Measures, specifically with regard to Greatness Time. In this way, our general objective was to analyze the knowledge of 4th grade students, from Elementary School I, about the greatness of time, comparing the performance of two classes from different schools. To this end, we will seek to discuss what has been researched and disseminated on this topic, also identifying in the curriculum documents the guidelines proposed for teaching this theme. The qualitative methodology involved the application of a diagnosis in two classes of the 4th year of schools with different performance indexes. The results indicated that one class did better than another, but it is clear that although it is part of the students' daily lives, the greatness of time is little explored and problematized. It is necessary that this theme is better explored in the classroom, with planning according to the curricular documents, articulating with the student's daily life.
