Resgatando os conhecimentos prévios da geometria plana para a aprendizagem significativa da geometria espacial

Abstract

This course conclusion work presentes na analysis and reflection on the use of concrete material and visualization in the teaching and learning of plane geometry and Space in the 3rd year of the Polytechnic School. It performed a theoretical study Geometry of education according to the National Curriculum Parameters (PCN), the meaning and importance of meaningful learning and visualization in teaching. Through this study, a priori developed na analysis of prior knowledge presented by the students on plane geometry and space, and application of a novel class with use of concrete material, where they should build the plane figures and polyhedrons using toothpicks, gum or modeling clay, to enablelearning and building concepts and knowledge itself. Through this class can observe the importance of using concrete material in the teaching and learning of mathematical contente, in addition to interest, participation and motivation demonstrated by students in the construction and analysis of concepts worked.
