Aplicação de recursos lúdicos nas aulas de matemática com alunos do 6º ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

The aim of this work is to improve and awaken interest in the mathematics component, since it is still feared by many students today. This research was carried out using games in the classroom, such as Cryptogram of Numbers, Math Stop and Fraction Dominoes. Based on the application of these games, an analysis was made of the students' acceptance and involvement with the subject, in the 6th grade A, B and C classes on the morning shift, which demonstrated the enrichment of logical reasoning, visual perception, agility in mental calculation and, above all, the strengthening of the class bond, consequently pointing to a reduction in the number of unjustified absences, due to the fact that it makes classes more dynamic and participatory. Thus, the results of the research show that the students' concentration in the classroom has improved, as well as their self-esteem, dispelling the stigma that this subject is difficult because they have been able to see themselves as capable of learning by performing mental calculations quickly and participating effectively in lessons and in the construction of their learning.
