Jogos matemáticos no ensino de números inteiros: um conjunto de atividades para o ensino fundamental

Abstract

The main objective of this work is to develop a didactic sequence aimed at the development of whole numbers and their four operations, using mathematical games. Specific objectives include: Conducting a bibliographic survey on how mathematical games assist in the teaching and learning of whole numbers and their operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division); We identify which math games help students with difficulties with integers learn; Categorize mathematical games that can help students effectively learn about integers; Develop a didactic proposal involving games for teaching integers and operations with integers. The research is classified as qualitative, its approach being exploratory for the objectives, and finally, bibliographic for the procedures that were used. The theoretical basis includes a contextualization of whole numbers, sets and subsets of Z; BNCC skills and obstacles pointed out by the PCN in learning numbers; having as operations with whole numbers and their variations. With contributions from Van de Walle (2009), Pommer (2010), Cabral (2006), Teixeira (2013), Borin (1995), among others. With this, a proposal for a didactic sequence of mathematical games from books such as mathematics and scientific articles was developed. Finally, it is concluded that the use of mathematical games in teaching numbers has a significantly relevant contribution to student learning, enabling the stimulation of agility in reasoning, mental calculations, planning in actions, critical thinking and development in the learning of whole numbers and their operations. That this didactic proposal produced in this study contributes to the learning and teaching of whole numbers, in a way that helps the educator to increasingly explore mathematical games in the classroom.
