The Geometry teaching with rhymes: the formative action

Abstract

This article is the result of continuing education with teachers, the institution's coordinator, and scholarship students from the Institutional Program for Teaching Initiation Scholarships (PIBID). The actions were developed in the project of the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for the Training of Educators (LIFE) of the Federal University of Grande Dourados in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Our objective was to promote the reflection of this training group using resources such as: texts that are known by heart, relating them to activities of mathematical content, whatever, - Geometry. We thus highlight the importance of using texts for interdisciplinary teaching. The training developed the following activities: theoretical background, presentation of the rhymes, dynamics of the sung rhymes — skipping rope, reflection on what activities can be carried out, request for representation by drawing the rhymes. Given this formation, we realized the need to carry out interdisciplinary and collaborative training actions, encouraging a playful and enjoyable formation for the teaching of Geometry.
