Professores de matemática e suas considerações sobre o ensino de geometria

Abstract

This final paper named “Math teachers and their considerations about geometry teaching”, was done with the purpose of investigating what are the dificulties that math teachers face to teach geometry in Elementary School. And to express the importance of this paper is essencial to remind that since primitive men the geometric ways and structures had been always and still are present in men`s life. This paper shows a brief story about geometry, allegations about its importance, evolution and defective about the teaching of it, besids, it juts out guidings of PCN about the importance of teaching geometry and the graduation of teachers related to this content. To realize this paper was adopted a qualitative approaching throughout interviews semi-estructured, but also bibliographic survey was done to realize the information`s collection. The data that guided this search, was collected with six math teachers from pubic schools that teach geometry in Elementary School. To these professionals of education, the right of expressing their opinion themselves was given besides they displayed their job`s condition, their voices were listened to a better comprenension about the reality in teaching geometry in the classroom. By the way, the classroom are not in good condition, this fact we can notice analysing the data searched, as a result of the several factors that interfe in the geometry `s teaching process.
