Medidas de comprimento : uma sequência didática na perspectiva interdisciplinar para o ensino fundamental

Abstract

This dissertation is the report of a research about the elaboration, application and validation of a didactic sequence with interdisciplinary practices focused on teaching and learning length measurements for the fifth grade of elementary school in a private school in the city of Caxias do Sul. The research sought to answer the following guiding question: How did a didactic sequence with interdisciplinary practices focused on the reality of fifth grade students of elementary school contribute to the meaningful learning of the concepts of magnitudes and length measurements? The research carried out is of an applied nature and has a qualitative approach. In order to find the solution to the guiding question, a didactic sequence was elaborated based on the Theory of Meaningful Learning and with an interdisciplinary approach as a way to articulate, relate and integrate the knowledge of Portuguese Language, Art, Geography, Physical Education, History and Mathematics in the teaching and learning process, considering the maintenance of a disciplinary structure at specific moments in the pedagogical work. The teaching sequence was developed in 11 50-minute meetings in November and December 2023. Based on the analysis of data obtained through practical measurement activities, group work and questionnaires, among others, evidence of significant learning regarding the content of length measurements can be found. Thus, as an educational product of this research, a teaching sequence with interdisciplinary practices was generated that aims to contribute to teaching practices for the teaching of quantities and length measurements, focusing on the active participation of elementary school students in the construction of knowledge.
