Jogos matemáticos em sala de aula: perspectiva docente dos professores de matemática das escolas participantes do PIBID em Caicó-RN

Abstract

The present work had as main objective to analyze the perspective that the professors of Mathematics of the participating schools of the PIBID in Caicó - RN have on the use of Mathematical Games. This study is based on the qualitative research of the case study type, and regarding the use of Mathematical Games as Pedagogical Resources for Teaching-learning of Mathematics the theoretical contributions of authors such as Grando (2000), Rizzo (1996), Silva and Kodama (2004) and others. The research had as stages the elaboration and application of a questionnaire with the teachers. The analysis of the results obtained with the questionnaire showed that the teachers recognize the importance of the use of Mathematical Games in the classroom, sometimes even facing some difficulties, for example, the lack of training course aimed at the use of this resource and lack of material to make the Games. They point out that Mathematical Games help the student to better understand the content, since they are elaborated taking into account the concepts already seen in the classroom, so besides awakening the curiosity, creativity and new forms of thoughts in the students, they still facilitate in the fixing of mathematical knowledge
