Guía didáctica para desarrollar el pensamiento lógico matemático en tercer año de educación general básica

Abstract

The objective of this study was to create pedagogical strategies aimed at promoting the evolution of logical-mathematical ability in students in the third year of Basic General Education (EGB). The method applied had a qualitative perspective, based on the direct observation of the pedagogical practices and methodologies used by the teachers, focusing on three elements: Logical-Mathematical Thinking, Didactic Strategies and Child Development of children from 7 to 8 years old. The research was based on the constructivist perspective, therefore, since knowledge is an active construction of the student, the methodology model was structured in three key phases: concrete, connective and symbolic. Through these phases, a progressive and meaningful understanding of mathematical theories was provided. The data obtained demonstrated the need to improve the planning used in the class. as a result of the questioning, a Didactic Guide was developed that provides a clear and effective structure, making it easier for educators to use strategies adapted to the cognitive abilities of the students, thus favoring a more dynamic and appropriate teaching
