Proposta de atividade com a calculadora no ensino fundamental.

Abstract

In this work we propose a collection of activities, subdivided into certain significant characteristics, such as numerical, some contextualized problems, remarks about some calculations patterns, varied curiosities, games and investigations, among others, in order to lead students to extract the best of their potentialities. The abstractions on the use of some tools, present in this work, are only a small sample in a universe quite diverse, with the purpose to stimulate and encourage teachers of mathematics, hoping that students become more focused on the essential, which are the logical, strategies and findings. Also, we present a brief account of the history of the calculators and their pedagogical implications, main object of our approach, plus the general use of some technologies as tools to support the teaching of mathematics, based on the national curriculum guidelines, and suggestions for others methodological steps.
