Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Especialização em Ensino de Matemática), Centro de Ciências Exatas e da Terra, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2016.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/43811This work is the result of a literature review and also the account of a successful experience of a teacher who, on the border of Paraíba, can, through the teaching of geometry, stimulate your students for the approval in the brazilian mathematical olympiad – OBMEP. Based on the thought of authors such as Struik (1989), Boyer (2003) and Smole (2007), among others, did a walk through mathematics through the ages, questioned the teaching and learning of mathematics in the elementary school, discussed the importance of geometry and, finally, a success story of elementary students with the math teacher, Alves Ferreira Jonilda municipal school Cândido de Assis Queiroga in Paulista – PB, proving that if there is stimulus, there is reward.openAccessMatemáticaMathematicsMatemática - Ensino - SucessoEnsino da Matemática - Estímulo e Recompensa.GeometriaGeometrypostGraduateThesis
