A utilização de material concreto no ensino de matemática para estudantes com transtornos do espectro autista

Abstract

We discuss forms and methodologies for teaching mathematics to students with Autism Spectrum Disorder. Include it to ensure that the student feels an integral part of the learning process; and guarantee the best possibilities for this to happen; Create situations so that students develop skills and feel prepared for the challenges ahead. In this way, it becomes necessary to create new possibilities, to draw up different approaches that the assistant or professor can use in teaching practice in the classroom. This work seeks to discuss the Teaching of Mathematics in Basic Education and the Autism Spectrum Disorder (TEA); In addition to presenting a sequence of activities as a suggestion for a mathematics teacher. To carry out this work, a qualitative descriptive research of a bibliographical nature was carried out. It is concluded that the use of concrete material is a great ally in learning for autistic children, because it offers different manipulation strategies allowing the concrete to be abstracted and working on cognitive, motor, social, logical and other skills.
