Resumen
This dissertation aims to contribute on teaching of mathematics for enabling learning
connected to the relationship among science, society, culture and cognition. To this end, we
propose the involvement of our students with social practices found in history, since. Our
intention is to create opportunities for school practices that these mathematical arising from
professional practice historical, provide strategies for mathematical thinking and reasoning in
the search for solutions to problematizations found today. We believe that the propose of
producing Basic Problematization Units, or simply UBPs, in math teacher formation, points to
an alternative that allows better utilization of the teaching and learning process of mathematics.
The proposal has the aim of primary education to be, really forming the citizen, making it
critical and society transformative agent. In this sense, we present some recommendations for
exploration and use of these units for teachers to use the material investigated by us, in order to
complement their teaching work in mathematics lessons. Our teaching recommendations
materialized as a product of exploration on the book, Instrumentos nuevos de geometria muy
necessários para medir distancia y alturas sem que interuengan numeros como se demuestra em
la practica , written by Andrés de Cespedes, published in Madrid, Spain, in 1606. From these
problematizations and the mathematics involved in their solutions, some guidelines for didactic
use of the book are presented, so that the teacher can rework such problematizations supported
on current issues, and thus use them in the classroom
