Matemática e energia: Uma sequência de ensino investigativa para o 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental

Abstract

The changes promoted by the official documents are aspects that should be analyzed, in several aspects because they require adjustments for both teachers and students and consequently in classes. One of these changes is the implementation of the National Common Curriculum Base (BNCC), the BNCC for Elementary School was approved in 2017 and should be guidance for all private and public elementary school throughout the country, this base will make common pathways and contents in the whole dimension of the country. The BNCC divides the contents of Science into thematic units one of these thematic units is called Matter and Energy which will be the focus of the research. Therefore, seeking new alternatives and strategies for science classes specifically in physics to become more attractive is a challenge for the teacher in the face of the changes that Brazilian education has been suffering, also in the face of constant repetition, for part of the students, that physics classes have no application in daily life and that Mathematics is the problem in the teaching of physics. Thus the search for new alternatives is often a challenge for the teacher due to various aspects, such as physical and cultural that schools present. In view of this search for the teacher and the promotion of the research presented by the National Common Curriculum Base, research is a way of presenting science as a construction of knowledge, the promotion of this in the classroom should favor the understanding evolutionary of physics, knowing that it is a science that has suffered several influences in the course of time. Given this panorama of changes that has been happening, the research aims to present a proposal of teaching sequence for the teacher and a didactic module for the student, with activities that promote research in the classroom to a target audience composed of students of the 9th grade of elementary school. The teaching sequence is an orientation for the teacher on how to develop the activities also promoting the autonomy of the same in the development of the classes. In the didactic module are arranged activities that bring historical context and investigative experimentation among other approaches. Thus we intend to present an alternative activity so that the teacher can present a thematic unit of the National Common Curriculum Base.
