Possibilidades de uma sequência didática no campo da geometria plana para alunos do 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental.

Abstract

This research carried out investigative work, of a qualitative nature, regarding the use of a didactic sequence for teaching Flat Geometry to students in the 9th year of Elementary School. In this study, the search came from the author's concerns regarding the concern that Geometry contents were not taught consistently, given the observation that many complete Elementary School without the basic notions of this subject. Geometry is present throughout our daily lives and its applications are very important in various professions such as Civil Engineering, Architecture, Carpentry, among others. The nature of the research is basic research, since in this case the purpose is to expand knowledge on the subject. From the point of view of objectives, it is exploratory, as initially the aim is to obtain more information about the subject studied. Regarding technical procedures, this is field research, since it was necessary to produce data with students through the application of a didactic sequence. The proposed activities were intended to introduce in a practical way the teaching of Plane Geometry, with the basic concepts and calculations of areas and perimeters of plane figures for the 9th (ninth) year of Elementary School at Escola Municipal de Ensino Fundamental Therezinha Abreu Vita and , in addition, through this work, we present a different proposal for teaching Flat Geometry for the community of educators in the region of Santana do Araguaia - PA. To this end, we created this educational product made up of five investigative activities, in order to guide students in an intuitive way to learn the content. Therefore, this course completion work brought a new creative way of teaching Geometry, combining the student's reality, and in this way, we believe that education can transform students into individuals who will be participative and relate the knowledge learned with society in which they are inserted.
