Propondo metologias para o ensino de frações

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to present the study of fractions, emphasizing the difficulties exposed by students in the classroom, seeking ways to promote better development and better learning. This project was based on bibliographic research in order to better understand this theme, for which the works of Druck (2005, Cavaliere (2005), Santos and Fonseca (2019), Santos (2014), Scolaro (2008) and Lorenzato (2008) were used. For the development of this work, the qualitative method was used, which aimed to analyze the way in which the content of fractions has been transmitted to students, and the little information found was in books, with the classic teachings of dividing cake, chocolate and pizza, harming teaching and making it difficult for it to be of quality. Thus, methods were devised to help students gain a better understanding of fractions, with positive results. Finally, it is necessary for mathematics professionals to master the content before transmitting it, in order to bring a better concept to the classroom and allow students to create their own learning through the ideas exposed and not leaving them the false mastery of fractions.
