USO DE JOGOS NO ENSINO DE MATEMÁTICA:UMA PROPOSTA DIDÁTICA PARA O ENSINO DE PROBABILIDADE

Abstract

The games are part of human life since ancient times. The interest in studying them has contributed fundamentally to the development of probability theory. Starting from the premise that teaching and learning mathematics should not be something tiresome and uninteresting, this work aims to propose and present a didactic proposal that combines the activities proposed in the material prepared by the São Paulo State Education and adopted by the state schools this state the use of educational games that can contribute to the teaching and learning of probability process. To this end, we tried to carry out a literature search on the topics probability and use of games in classrooms and study and describe the activities presented in the Student Notebook and Teacher's Notebook, both used in state schools of the state of Paulo. The didactic proposal to join games to the activities already planned in this material was applied in a classroom of the 2nd year of high school, trying to integrate the Student Notebook activities to use games to address the issue likely. It also describes the characteristics of the school where the proposal was applied, the details of the activities, the materials used, the evaluation of the content that has been applied to students and a questionnaire in which they were able to respond and assess the practical use.
