Rumo ao topo: a utilização de jogos como recurso didático de ensino de matemática e de física

Abstract

The teaching of Mathematics and Physics are always seen as “Bicho Papão” by students. However, we can change this misconception about these areas of knowledge. Teaching through games is one of the areas that has grown the most in recent years, so the present work presents the game “Rumo ao Topo” as an object that facilitates learning. In addition to presenting the game and verifying its educational value, we seek with this monograph to approach the concept used for games as well as to contemplate an examination of the National Curriculum Parameters (PCN) and the Common Curricular National Base on the theme of this project. The game “Rumo ao Topo” was applied in a school in the municipality of Santarém in Western Pará. Through this monograph we present some reports on the use of “Rumo ao Topo” in addition to the difficulties presented during the construction of the activity and how they were overcome .
