O papel do ludico no ensino da matemática

Abstract

The use of recreational activities has proven to be an important tool in teaching mathematics, facilitating the relationship between teacher and student in the development of logical reasoning, creativity and the ability to solve everyday problems in a dynamic way. The general objective of this research was: To analyze the importance of recreational games and how they can help in teaching mathematics. Specifically: To address recreational activities as a resource in teaching mathematics; To verify the relevance of games in teaching mathematics; and To analyze the contribution of recreational games in the teaching and learning process of mathematics. The method used in this research is bibliographic research based on the reading of scientific articles, books and magazines, theses, dissertations and course completion papers. During the reading, 7 works were analyzed. In general, it was possible to observe that recreational activities based on games, when applied in the classroom, I could verify that one of the main positive results achieved was the development of logical reasoning and theoretical understanding of the content by the students. Therefore, it is concluded that play in mathematics teaching is an important and effective resource for learning consolidation.
