Análise de tarefas em livros didáticos: um olhar para os contextos

Abstract

Research in Mathematics Education has evidenced the context in mathematical tasks as a potentiator in the processes of teaching and learning Mathematics. This paper aims to identify in two textbooks of Basic Mathematics of the 6th grade, approved in PNLD 2017, tasks that present contexts that allow to perform an interdisciplinary work related to the content of natural numbers and decimal numbering system, since Textbooks are still the main didactic resource of math classes. In our discussion, we are based on the research carried out by Ferreira (2013) and the description of interdisciplinary work in government documents. It is a qualitative work of an interpretive nature, which seeks to highlight the importance of a critical reading of the didactic resources used in the classroom, especially the mathematical tasks of textbooks.
