Álgebra para o Ensino Fundamental nas orientações curriculares, A

Abstract

The present work aims to analyze the aspects of Algebra present in the curriculum of the Brazilian Elementary School. This is a bibliographic research with qualitative analysis, in which we seek to study the manifestations of how Algebra presents itself in the curriculum of basic education, using as theoretical foundation works by authors who have researched the teaching of algebra and its particularities. In addition, we have researched official documents such as: the National Curricular Parameters and the second version of the preliminary proposal of the National Curricular Common Base. In both documents, we focused our research on the topic Algebra. A historical / bibliographic survey was developed with the objective of searching through the history of Algebra, an understanding of algebraic evolution and its implications for the classroom. With regard to algebraic thought, we find that it is based on the development of innovative methods to solve mathematical problems.
