Dizeres e saberes etnomatemáticos dos comerciantes da feira livre do município de Bayeux-PB

Abstract

The present work describes the mathematical words and knowledge of the fruit and vegetable trade show marketers of the Bayeux Fair, with the main objective of identifying and relating the knowledge and mathematical practices of these fairgrounds, with the contents of basic school mathematics. Our research is of a qualitative nature and follows the methodology of searching for an analysis of the data collected so that we can present our results. In order to make the theoretical basis of our proposal, we have recourse to recognized authors who have a sharper view on our subject, such as Almeida (2013), D`Ambrosio (1997/1998/2001) and De Certeau (1994). In the final considerations, we emphasize that it is extremely important to associate the contents taught in the classroom with the socio -cultural environment experienced by the students.
