Métodos para o ensino-aprendizagem de álgebra em aulas de matemática do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This study investigates teaching methodologies that support the teaching and learning process of Algebra in Elementary Education, considering the challenges faced by both teachers and students in this subject area. The research is bibliographic in nature, involving a review of methodological proposals found in academic literature and digital educational resources. Among the methods analyzed, educational games (such as algebra dominoes, factorization card games, and algebra bingo), didactic sequences, and the use of GeoGebra software stand out as effective tools to stimulate algebraic thinking, facilitate concept understanding, and promote greater student engagement. The results indicate that these approaches enhance the development of logical reasoning, autonomy, and mathematical argumentation. It is concluded that the use of methodologies, aligned with Brazil’s National Common Curricular Base (BNCC), can transform Algebra teaching, making it more meaningful and accessible to students in the final years of Elementary Education
