Abstract

This study aims to investigate the understandings that Primary School Mathematics teachers in Cornelio Procopio city have about fractions teaching. This goal has been chosen because reviews and government evaluations point that Brazilian students have learning difficulties of fraction’s content. To reach this goal, we performed interviews with five Cornelio Procopio Mathematics teachers. These interviews were semi organized, based on a previously defined script and, for the obtained data analysis, it was used the Discursive Textual Analysis.
