Diovana Guerra Simões, Clarissa de Assis Olgin

Resumo


Background: The teaching of fractions is important due to its everyday applicability and relevance in different fields. However, its teaching is still challenging, and students often encounter difficulties. Given this reality, it is necessary to promote continuous training on this topic to enhance teachers' pedagogical practices. Objectives: The objective of the research was to analyze the activities developed in continued training for teachers in the area of Mathematics in the initial years of Elementary School, aiming to examine their contributions to the development of Fraction content. Design: The methodology adopted was qualitative, with an interpretative analysis of the collected materials. Environment and participants: The continued training for teachers was carried out remotely, with synchronous moments via Google Meetings and the Moodle platform. The research participants were 24 teachers from the initial years of Elementary School in the city of Taquara, in Rio Grande do Sul. Data collection and analysis: Data collection and analysis were carried out based on materials obtained during continued training for teachers, being analyzed in a descriptive and interpretative way. Results: The training offered to teachers allowed them to expand their knowledge on the proposed topic, enabling them to develop plans that enhance the teaching and learning process of Fractions content. Conclusions: The training meetings were considered important to enable teachers to improve their mathematical and methodological knowledge, allowing them to approach the concepts judiciously, promoting a comprehensive understanding. It is understood that continued training, such as the proposal, is fundamental to improving teaching and strengthening teaching practice.
