Ensino de matemática no contexto da educação ambiental: elaboração de uma proposta didática para um 6º ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

The main objective of this research is to present a didactic proposal for Mathematics Teaching in the context of Environmental Education for a 5th gradeclass of Elementary School. Game was chosen for its playful and motivating character. After elaboration, the activity was applied in a 5th grade class of Elementary School in a state college located in the municipality of Santa Terezinha de Itaipu, in the west of Paraná. From the observation of the students during the game, it can be concluded that the objectives sought for the proposal were reached, considering that all the students became involved with the activity and felt motivated to participate in it. Bythe game, students were able to practice mathematical content that they had already studied, and also learn subjects of their local reality related to the environment. Nowadays, it is perceived that teachers are increasingly worried about finding a teaching methodology that will make their classes more attractive to students and the learning more meaningful. From this perspective, it is expected that the didactic proposal presented in this research may contribute to the pedagogical practice of mathematics teachers.
