Full textAbstract:
This research started from the guiding questions: What are the difficulties encountered by teachers of the initial years of Elementary School in the face of the subject of mathematics? How can these difficulties be overcome? Thus, the research aimed to identify the difficulties encountered by teachers in the initial years of Elementary School in relation to the discipline of mathematics, highlighting how they were overcome. The data was collected through the application of a questionnaire to 07 teachers working in the initial years of Elementary School, and was analyzed through Content Analysis. Three categories emerged: (C1) Reports of personal experiences in relation to the subject of mathematics; (C2) Overcoming difficulties in mathematics; (C3) Academic suggestions for teacher education. From the results found, it was noted that in-service education, the exchange of experiences and the availability of materials that address mathematical content are factors that directly affect overcoming the difficulties with the subject.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the present study was to conduct an initial validation of the Positive Family Support–Strengths and Needs Assessment (PFS-SaNA) for elementary school children. The PFS-SaNA is designed as a universal screener wherein parents report on common areas their children may need additional support. Parents of children attending one elementary school participated in two consecutive years. A total of 627 parents of elementary school children participated (Year 1 = 368, Year 2 = 259). Exploratory factor analysis was conducted across Years 1 and 2 and a replicability test compared item loadings from Year 1 and Year 2. Finally, evidence of external validity was examined. Results suggested the PFS-SaNA is unidimensional with findings indicating item loadings replicated from Year 1 to Year 2. Finally, evidence of external validity was found. Implications for the PFS-SaNA as a universal parent screener that can be embedded in a multiple gating risk management strategy in elementary school are discussed.

Early reading is an important primary capital that students have in conducting their academic knowledge, but there are still many elementary school students who have not mastered the skills. Using the right reading method can support children's skills in reading. The purpose of the study is to determine the effectiveness of the Multisensory method on the early reading skills in 6-7 years old children of the State Elementary School 10 Ganting Bigau and the State Elementary School 19 Koto Tuo, the Sulit Air Village, District X Koto diatas, the Regency of Solok. Withdrawal of samples with simple random sampling technique. Data collection is conducted by adapting instruments from ERSI (The Early Reading Screening Instrument). The data analysis technique is an independent T-test that is to see a comparison of differences in the average score. The results showed that the Multisensory method was effective in developing early reading skills in Grade 1 students at elementary school. The use of multisensory reading methods can be an alternative to the choice of reading by the teacher in improving the student's initial reading.

Neste trabalho se discute o ensino fundamental de nove anos e a organização escolar para os anos iniciais do ensino fundamental no Brasil. Trata-se de uma reflexão crítica por meio de literatura especializada organizada em três seções. A primeira considera a idade que integra o ensino fundamental a partir da legislação brasileira. Na segunda, analisamos a criança de seis anos no ensino fundamental e a necessária sensibilidade no desenvolvimento de seus saberes e fazeres e, em seguida construímos algumas considerações sobre a organização do currículo para o ensino fundamental de nove anos. O estudo aponta que quanto mais cedo se faz a incursão da criança nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental, não se pode perder de vista a especificidade da infância em seus tempos, espaços e possibilidades.Palavras-chave: ensino fundamental de nove anos, organização curricular, anos iniciais. THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL NINE YEARS AND ORGANIZATION CURRICULUM FOR EARLY YEARS IN MATO GROSSO DO SUL AbstractThis paper discusses the fundamental education of nine years and school organization for the early years of elementary school in Brazil. It is a reflexive critical reflection by means of specialized literature organized into three sections. The first considers the age which integrates elementary school from the Brazilian legislation. In the second, we analyze the child of six years in the elementary school and the necessary sensitivity to develop their knowledge and practices and then build some considerations about the Organization of the curriculum for elementary education of nine years. The study brought to light that, the sooner you make the incursion of the child in the early years of elementary school, one cannot lose sight of the specificity of childhood in their times, spaces and possibilities.Key-words: nine-year elementary school, curriculum organization, the initial years.

Full textAbstract:
Background: One of the challenges in pedagogical practice in science in the initial years of elementary school (EF) is focused on developing objects of knowledge with an emphasis on scientific literacy. Objective: To investigate how the pedagogical practices of teachers of the 1st and 2nd grades of the elementary school contribute to promoting access and the development of scientific knowledge to educate a scientifically literate individual. Design: Ethnographic case study, through triangulation of data in a qualitative research perspective. Setting and Participants: Seven basic education women teachers who work in three different schools in the municipality of Vera Cruz/RS participated. Data collection: Observation and description in a logbook, questionnaires and interviews with teachers, as well as one student’s notebook and the official school document (Pedagogical Political Project). Results: The promotion of subsidies for access and mediation of scientific knowledge in teaching actions, although a significant portion of teachers has little corroborated the education of a scientifically literate individual. Conclusions: There must be actions aimed at continuing teacher education to favour significant school environment changes.

We drew on interview data to explore novice teachers' experiences who had less than three years of experience during their first job in public elementary schools. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews with a purposive sample of ten novice teachers. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the experiences of novice teachers. The analysis came up with four themes: Responsive administration, helping hands, struggling with workload, and supportive principal.The study's findings revealed that most of the teachers faced over-crowded classes and a high workload in their initial time. Most of the teachers had received support from the administration; however, the administration was helpless regarding many challenges that the novice teachers faced in their early years. Many administrators did not help the novice teachers’ deal with over-crowded classrooms, the extra workload in the form of periods per week, and the management of students' behaviors.

Full textAbstract:
While social competence is widely studied, relatively few studies are aimed at investigating social competence at elementary school years. Furthermore, social competence tends to be dependent on social and cultural context; hence instrument developed in one country may require significant adaptations in other countries. Thus, the purpose of the present study was to develop a Lithuanian questionnaire for assessment of social competence at elementary school.
 Individual items for the Elementary School Social Competence Questionnaire were drawn from the Early Developement Instrument (Janus et al., 2007), the Social Emotional School Readiness Scale (Bustin, 2007), and the Social Competence Inventory (Rydell et al., 1997). The study was conducted in two waves. In the first wave subjects were 437 first graders (198 boys and 239 girls) from Lithuania. In the second wave, which took place a year after, 192 boys and 228 girls participated.
 The Elementary School Social Competence Questionnaire was developed from the initial pool of items using structural equation modeling. The Questionnaire contained the Communicative Social Competence Subscale and the Ability to Take Directions Subscale. The initial measurement model was confirmed using confirmatory factor analysis on the dataset obtained during the second wave of measurement. Both subscales demonstrated good internal and test-retest reliability. Construct validity of the instrument was assessed by correlating its subscales with student-teacher relationship, in-class popularity, and school anxiety measures.

Full textAbstract:
In this study, longitudinal data from 708 schools across five states in the continental United States were analyzed to measure the time between initial training and adequate implementation of Tier I Schoolwide Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports over 5 years and the extent to which it varied by school characteristics. Results indicated that, all else constant: elementary schools were more likely to reach adequate implementation before middle and high schools, non–Title I schools were more likely to reach adequate implementation before Title I schools, and suburban schools were more likely to reach adequate implementation before city schools. The findings provide empirical documentation of the average length of time required for adequate implementation of a systems-level intervention, as well as how that length differs across nonmalleable school characteristics.

PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR<br>PROGRAMA DE EXCELENCIA ACADEMICA<br>O presente trabalho retoma a questão da formação de professores pelos cursos de Pedagogia. Para tal empreendeu uma pesquisa com alunos, professores e coordenadores de dois cursos de Pedagogia considerados de qualidade, pertencentes a instituições voltadas para a pesquisa e que estão avaliadas entre as melhores da cidade do Rio de Janeiro, uma pública e uma privada comunitária. Buscamos compreender como se dá a atual formação de professores para o Primeiro Segmento do Ensino Fundamental, uma vez que esta formação hoje, após um movimento de reestruturação, submete-se à exigência da formação em nível superior, num processo de universitarização, na suposição de que esta seria uma forma de qualificar melhor a formação docente e encaminhá-la para a profissionalização. Indagamos aos estudantes se percebem-se preparados para enfrentar os desafios da profissão a partir, principalmente, do valor atribuído às questões pedagógicas em sua trajetória acadêmica. Os motivos da escolha, as possibilidades de atuação dentro da profissão, as condições de formação e de desenvolvimento do trabalho estudantil dos futuros professores foram analisados através do olhar do próprio estudante e de seus professores. Os dois cursos foram investigados a partir da aplicação presencial de 252 questionários para alunos, 62 questionários online para professores, além da realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas com os coordenadores dos dois cursos. Os estudantes de Pedagogia da nossa pesquisa, da mesma forma como divulgado pela literatura, são, em sua maioria, provenientes de estratos de camadas populares, e demandariam, portanto, condições humanas e materiais para maior dedicação e investimento no curso superior, de modo a contrabalançar as possíveis deficiências de sua formação básica, buscamos identificar as possíveis oportunidades oferecidas pelas instituições para suplantar essa dificuldade inicial. Com este conjunto de elementos procuramos levantar algumas hipóteses sobre as dificuldades a serem enfrentadas pelos cursos de Pedagogia e os rumos da formação docente em nosso país.<br>The present work resume the question of teachers training under Pedagogy graduation courses. To do so, a research with students, professors and coordinators of two top quality Pedagogy courses was undertaken. Both of them belonging to research institutions evaluated among the best in the city of Rio de Janeiro, one public and one community private. We seek to understand how the present teachers training for initial school years of elementary school works. Since this qualification now a days, after a movement of restructuring, is under the demand of university diploma. A process that can be called universitization, in order to better qualify teachers training and enhance professionalization. We asked th students IF they see themselves prepared to face the challenges inherent to the profession, based on the value given to pedagogy questions in their academic trajectory. Why they chose the course, the possibilities of professional performance, the conditions of formation and the development of students work were questions asked and driven by the look of the students and their teachers themselfs. Both courses were researched through the application of 252 presence questionnaires for students, 62 online questionnaires for professors and semi structured interviews with both courses coordinators. The majority of the students in our research, as indicated by the literature, come from popular strata. There so, demanding more human and material conditions to increase dedication and investment to achieve university diploma, in order to counterbalance possible deficiencies in their basic education. We also aimed to identify opportunities offered by those institutions to overcome these initial difficulties. With this group of elements, we looked forward to raise some hypothesis about the challenges to be faced by the Pedagogy courses and the pathways of teachers training in our country.

Full textAbstract:
PONTIFÍCIA UNIVERSIDADE CATÓLICA DO RIO DE JANEIRO<br>COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR<br>Repetência refere-se à prática escolar de reter, em uma determinada série, estudantes que em geral não alcançaram o rendimento desejado ao final de um ano letivo. O objetivo desta prática seria corrigir possíveis falhas na aprendizagem ou adequar situações de imaturidade do aluno. No contexto do debate sobre as vantagens e desvantagens desta medida, a dissertação busca verificar os efeitos da repetência no desempenho dos estudantes nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental que participaram do Projeto Geres entre 2005 e 2008. Ao longo da pesquisa busca-se compreender: 1) se os alunos que passaram pela experiência de repetência, mesmo ao custo de um ano extra de escolarização, apresentaram ganhos reais de proficiência que justifiquem a utilização de tal medida; 2) no caso de ter havido ganhos reais em aprendizagem, se esses ganhos se mantém ao longo dos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Para tentar responder a estas perguntas, foi desenvolvido um estudo observacional que compara dois grupos de alunos, repetentes e promovidos, pareados através de matching, e analisa o impacto da repetência nas medidas de proficiência em Língua Portuguesa e Matemática desses grupos de alunos em diferentes momentos da sua trajetória escolar. Corroborando com diversas pesquisas sobre os efeitos da repetência, os resultados mostram que os alunos repetentes progridem menos que os alunos promovidos ao longo do tempo. Quando comparados em uma mesma série, independente do ano letivo em que a cursaram, os repetentes se saem melhor, embora o efeito em Língua Portuguesa se perca ao longo das séries.<br>Repetition refers to the school practice of holding back, in a given grade, students that generally did not achieve the desired performance at the end of a school year. This practice has the goal to correct possible flaws in learning or adjust to situations of immaturity of the student. In the context of the debate about the advantages and disadvantages of this practice, this dissertation intends to verify the effects of failure on the student’s performance during the initial years of Elementary School. Those students took part in the Longitudinal Study of School Generation 2005 (Geres Project) from 2005 to 2008. Throughout the research the study aims to comprehend: [1] If the students that experience failure, even at the cost of an extra year of schooling, presented real gains of proficiency that justify the use of such measure; [2] in the case of real gains in learning, do this gains maintain during the initial years of the Elementary School? To try to answer these questions, a observational study was developed that compare two pupils groups, the ones who failed and the ones who got promoted, paired up through matching, and analyze the failure impact on the proficiency level in Reading and Mathematics from these groups of students in different moments of their school trajectory. Corroborating with several researches on the failure effects, the results show that the students who failed improve less than the students who were promoted along the years. When comparated in the same grade, regardless from the school grade that they have attended, the students who failed have better results, although the effect in Reading gets lost along the school grades.

Full textAbstract:
<p> Studies have documented challenges in meeting No Child Left Behind (NCLB) expectations as well as gender differences that contribute to the achievement gaps between boys and girls. In response to increased NCLB accountability and achievement gaps between boys and girls, several experts have promoted single-sex education as a possible strategy to improving student achievement. </p><p> The purpose of this study was to examine data that were gathered from an economically disadvantaged Title I federally-assisted upper elementary school with respect to the implementation of single-gender classrooms. This study was guided by the following two research questions: First, what were the perspectives from teachers, students, and parents with the initial year of implementation of single-gender classrooms? Second, what school level data could be analyzed and summarized with respect to student behaviors during the initial year of implementation? </p><p> Unlike previous studies, which focused on private or parochial schools at the secondary school level, this study focused on an economically disadvantaged school within an upper elementary setting. In addition, limited previous research has examined the perspectives of teachers, students, and parents. As research continues to show an ever-increasing achievement gap between students in poverty and those who are not, many educators seek alternative ways to educate students in economically disadvantaged schools. While single-gender classrooms are by no means a cure-all for the adversity faced by disadvantaged students in public schools, an analysis of the aforementioned research data indicated salient benefits for such students in that they can provide a learning environment where affective and cognitive learning outcomes could be realized. </p><p> The results from this study revealed that teachers and parents considered single-gender classrooms provide a positive learning environment for students. Teachers, students, and parents emphasized that single-gender classrooms allowed students to be more productive, removed the largest distractions for male and female students, and allowed them to concentrate on their schoolwork. In addition, the data revealed that single-gender classrooms had a positive impact on girls as viewed by teachers, female students, and parents of female students in terms of feeling comfortable enough to ask questions when they did not understand something.</p>

Previous issue date: 2015-03-19<br>This research is about the teaching of Geography and integrates the Teaching and Learning Research Line in the Graduate Program in Social and Environmental Geography Studies from the Institute of Geography at the Federal University of Goiás and the Laboratory of Studies and Research in Geographical Education - LEPEG. Geography was considered and investigated as an important field of knowledge to be acquired by the child from his first formative experiences in childhood, especially from the educational processes of the early years of elementary school. The main objective was to understand and analyze the reality and the possibilities of school geography in the early years of elementary school. Those who participated in this survey were teachers in the early years of elementary school who currently teach students in the 2nd and 3rd years of a selected public school selected in the Municipal Network of the city of Barreiras, Bahia. The construction of this object of study began with, above all, the formative experiences of educators teaching Geography in a public institution of higher education in Bahia, seeking to understand, in all the training processes, how to teach and how Geography is taught in the early years of elementary school. For the production of knowledge, research was guided in a qualitative-descriptive method (LUDK; ANDRÉ, 1986; MINAYO, 2002; André, 2005), using the following data collection instruments: literature review, document analysis, open question questionnaires, thematic workshops, observation and narrative. To investigate and explain that geographical and didactic knowledge in geography should be worked in the course of study for the early years of elementary school the following were adopted as a category method: praxis, by observing relations, contradictions and form of organization following key concepts, such as geographical knowledge; the course of pedagogy and teacher training; primary education in the early years in the Municipal Network of schools in Barreiras, Bahia. It is understood that, in school, Geography, the relevant conceptual benchmark for the development of spatial reasoning depends on the theoretical and methodological principles of understanding of space. And these should be developed when selecting the content, linking them to the analytical categories of geography: space, landscape, location, territory, region, network, society and nature, it is possible to transform the geographic content in thinking tools of students for the development of spatial reasoning, Callai (1996, 2000, 2011), Cavalcanti (1998, 2008, 2005, 2012), Castellar (1999, 2009, 2010) and Libâneo (2009, 2010). Research has shown that school teaching content of Geography should be conducted in the early years of elementary school through approach that relates to society and nature in the construction and organization of space. It was possible to see that thematic blocks and Geography contents are defined in the school curriculum, covering topics related to the study of the local landscape, the experienced and perceived space, referring to the student‟s everyday experience. This study found that working with Geography in the early years of primary education points to a specific link between the school, the reality lived and the community, which gives important significance to this school subject for an education and for citizenship. The teaching of Geography is required by the SME in Barriers, with allocation of hours to this subject, and it is a confirmed reality at the school studied.<br>Esta pesquisa é sobre o ensino de Geografia e integra-se à Linha de Pesquisa Ensino-Aprendizagens em Geografia do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geografia do Instituto de Estudos Socioambientais da Universidade Federal de Goiás e ao Laboratório de Estudos e Pesquisas em Educação Geográfica – LEPEG. Considerou-se e investigou-se a Geografia Escolar como um campo de conhecimento importante a ser adquirido pela criança desde suas primeiras experiências formativas vividas na infância, em especial a partir dos processos pedagógicos dos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. O principal objetivo foi compreender e analisar a realidade e as possibilidades da Geografia escolar nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Participaram, desta pesquisa, professores dos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental que atuam no 2º e 3º anos de uma escola pública selecionada pertencente à Rede Municipal de Educação do município de Barreiras-BA. Para a construção desse objeto de estudo partiu-se, sobretudo, das experiências formativas de pedagogos com o ensino de Geografia, em uma instituição pública de ensino superior na Bahia, buscando entender, no conjunto dos processos formativos, como se ensina e qual a Geografia se ensina nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Para a produção do conhecimento, a investigação pautou-se no método qualitativo- descritivo (LUDK; ANDRÉ, 1986; MINAYO, 2002; ANDRÉ, 2005), utilizando-se dos seguintes instrumentos de levantamento de dados: pesquisa bibliográfica, análise documental, questionário de perguntas abertas, oficinas temáticas, observação e narrativas. Para investigar e explicar que conhecimentos geográficos e didáticos em Geografia devem ser trabalhados no curso de Pedagogia para os anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, foi adotada, como categoria do método, a práxis, por meio da observação de relações, contradições e forma de organização dos seguintes conceitos-chave: o conhecimento geográfico; o curso de pedagogia e formação de professores; o Ensino Fundamental nos anos iniciais em escolas da Rede Municipal de Educação em Barreiras-BA. Entende-se que, na Geografia escolar, as referências conceituais relevantes para elaboração do raciocínio espacial dependem dos pressupostos teórico-metodológicos de compreensão do espaço. E estes devem ser desenvolvidos quando se selecionam os conteúdos, articulando-os às categorias de análise da Geografia: espaço, paisagem, lugar, território, região, rede, sociedade e natureza, pois é possível transformar os conteúdos geográficos em ferramentas do pensamento dos alunos para o desenvolvimento do raciocínio espacial ( Callai,1996, 2000, 2011), Cavalcanti (1998, 2008, 2005, 2012), Castellar (1999, 2009, 2010) e Libâneo (2009, 2010). A pesquisa mostrou que o conteúdo escolar ensino de Geografia deve ser conduzido, nos anos iniciais do Ensino Fundamental, mediante abordagem que relacione a sociedade e a natureza na construção e organização do espaço. Foi possível ver que blocos temáticos e conteúdos de Geografia são definidos no currículo da escola, contemplando temas relacionados ao estudo da paisagem local, ao espaço vivido e percebido, fazendo referência ao cotidiano do aluno. Este estudo evidenciou que o trabalho com a Geografia escolar nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental aponta para uma especificidade de vínculo entre a escola, a realidade vivida e a comunidade, o que confere a esse conteúdo escolar uma importância significativa para uma educação voltada para a cidadania. Esse ensino de Geografia está prescrito no SME de Barreiras, com destinação de carga horária para esse conhecimento, e trata-se de realidade que é verificada na escola estudada.

Previous issue date: 2016-03-10<br>O ensino de Ciências, especialmente quando realizado por um professor multidisciplinar, é caracterizado por considerável complexidade em razão de motivos diversos. Vários estudos têm revelado que, muitas vezes, o professor multidisciplinar, geralmente graduado em Pedagogia, finaliza a graduação com uma formação fragmentada para trabalhar com conteúdos de Ciências. Acrescenta-se a este cenário, o espaço, muitas vezes residual, disponibilizado para essa disciplina no início da escolarização fundamental. Visando contribuir com elementos para construção de caminhos possíveis no terreno da docência, este estudo buscou desenvolver um trabalho colaborativo, a partir de uma proposta de Formação Continuada, junto a docentes multidisciplinares no contexto da escola. Como alternativa para este intento, foi proposto a um grupo de professoras que integrassem a elaboração compartilhada de um Acervo Didático com aulas de Ciências, identificado como um produto final de um percurso de aprendizagem conjunta. Como objetivo principal, buscou-se investigar de que maneira a elaboração e utilização de um Acervo Didático poderia constituir-se como um suporte para o desenvolvimento profissional dos docentes. Concomitante à compilação dos materiais resultantes do trabalho pedagógico das professoras, também foi proposto às participantes a elaboração de registros escritos, denominados Registros Reflexivos, sobre as aulas desenvolvidas. Optou-se pelo desenvolvimento de uma pesquisa qualitativa, de caráter colaborativo e como instrumentos de coleta de dados foram utilizados questionários, observação participante, além de registros dos depoimentos escritos e orais que surgiram no decorrer do estudo. Os resultados obtidos permitem afirmar que a construção compartilhada de um Acervo Didático, juntamente com as demais ações integradas ao percurso de aprendizagem, representou uma estratégia de formação produtiva e que pode repercutir positivamente no desenvolvimento profissional dos docentes. No que se refere às propostas de formação de professores em exercício, acredita-se que o saber experiencial possa constituir-se como eixo central das discussões, como ponto de partida e de chegada, na medida em que o seu aprimoramento reconfigura a identidade docente e resulta em aprendizagens que contemplam os demais saberes e conhecimentos inerentes ao trabalho do professor.<br>Science education, especially when performed by a multidisciplinary teacher, is characterized by considerable complexity due to several reasons. Several studies have revealed that often multidisciplinary teacher, usually graduated in Education, concludes graduation with a fragmented training to work with science content. Added to this scenario, we have the space, often residual, available for this discipline at the beginning of elementary school education. To contribute with elements for construction of possible paths in the field of teaching, this study sought to develop a collaborative work, from a proposal for Continuing Education, along with multidisciplinary teacher in the school context. Alternatively for this purpose, it was proposed to a group of teachers to incorporate a shared development of a Didactic Collection with science classes, identified as an final product of a joint learning path. As the main objective, we sought to investigate how the development and use of a Didactic Collection could be constituted as a support for the professional development of teachers. Concomitant with the compilation of teaching materials resulting from the work of the teachers, it was also proposed to the participants to elaborate written records, called Reflective Records, on the developed classes. We opted for the development of a qualitative research, collaborative nature and as data collection instruments were used questionnaires, participant observation, and records of written and oral testimony that emerged during the study. The obtained results allow us to state that the shared construction of a Didactic Collection, along with other integrated actions into the learning process, represented a productive training strategy that can impact positively on the professional development of teachers. With regard to the proposal of training teachers in exercise, experiential knowledge is believed to arise as the centerpiece of discussions, as a point of departure and arrival, to the extent that its improvement reconfigures the teaching identity and results in learnings that include other knowledges and knowledges inherent to the work of the teacher.

Este trabalho apresenta investigação acerca das concepções de professores dos Anos Inicias sobre o Campo Multiplicativo à luz da Teoria dos Campos Conceituais de Gérard Vergnaud. O campo multiplicativo foi escolhido como tema de estudo por permear todo o ensino básico, sendo assim de grande importância para a formação matemática escolar dos estudantes. A coleta de dados se dá em um curso de formação continuada, que se desenvolveu ao longo de 5 encontros de 4 horas, com 11 professoras da Escola Estadual de Ensino Médio Célia Flores Lavra Pinto localizada no município de Viamão/RS. Utilizou-se a pesquisa-ação como metodologia da pesquisa. Ao final da pesquisa, concluímos que o grupo de professores pesquisado se mantém restrito ao trabalho voltado para o algoritmo de multiplicação e a memorização da tabuada, quando se trata do Campo Multiplicativo das Operações. O produto desta pesquisa é um conjunto de atividades sobre o tema Campo Multiplicativo das Operações, dentre outros temas relacionados, que poderão auxiliar professores que ensinam matemática interessados em pensar sobre a prática docente e ampliar suas possibilidades de intervenção junto aos estudantes.<br>This paper presents the development of a training course for teachers of the early years in order to investigate teachers' conceptions about Multiplicative Field Operations to the Theory of Conceptual Fields Gérard Vergnaud. The multiplicative field was chosen as the subject of study not only because it permates the whole basic education, but also because it has a great importance to the training school mathematics students. Data collection occurs in a continuing education course, which was developed in 5 meetings of 4 hours, with 11 teachers from State Preparatory School High School Celia Flores Lavra Pinto localized in Viamão/RS. We used the action research as the research methodology. At the end of the paper, we conclude that the studied group of teachers remains restricted to the work facing the multiplication algorithm and memorizing multiplication tables when it comes to the field Multiplicative Operations . The product of this research is a set of activities on the theme Multiplicative Field Operations. Among other issues, it may help teachers to teach mathematics for those who are interested in thinking about teaching practice and expand their possibilities of intervention with students.

Previous issue date: 2016-02-23<br>Não recebi financiamento<br>Esta pesquisa foi realizada visando entender o suporte político, filosófico e histórico do material, do projeto EMAI – Educação Matemática nos Anos Iniciais, do 4º ano da Educação Básica (1º ao 5º ano); os objetivos de sua implantação; a estrutura das atividades propostas; e suas respectivas expectativas de aprendizagem, bem como, entender a implantação desse projeto, seus benefícios e as dificuldades para a autonomia de agentes educacionais (professores e coordenadores) para o trabalho e para os estudos. O ponto de partida para a pesquisa foi a seguinte questão: “O projeto EMAI tem em seu texto um suporte teórico e filosófico que propicie a autonomia ao professor tão necessária para uma reflexão crítica sobre sua própria prática pedagógica?”. E para respondê-la, foi utilizada a metodologia de caráter qualitativo, tanto para a análise do material impresso quanto para a análise das entrevistas semiestruturadas. A busca, portanto, centrou-se no estudo do conceito de autonomia para o entendimento da identidade docente diante da implantação do referido projeto. A partir daí, aponta-se para a necessidade de inovações metodológicas e conceituais no que se refere ao estudo e ao trabalho com a Matemática tanto para a formação inicial quanto continuada do professor que atuará nos anos iniciais da Educação Básica. Como resultado se observou, tanto no material quanto nas entrevistas, que o projeto possibilita uma autonomia, porém, relativa para o trabalho do professor, condicionada pelas determinações do projeto EMAI. Apontou-se, portanto, para a formação inicial e continuada como possibilidades de avanços no sentido conceitual e metodológico para o trabalho com a Matemática; e, também, no sentido da construção de uma autonomia real e de uma identidade docente na produção e efetivação do currículo.<br>This research was carried out to understand the political, philosophical and historical support of EMAI - Mathematics Education in the Early Years – project material, from the 4th year of Basic education (1st to 5th grade); the objectives of its implementation; the structure of the proposed activities; and the respective expectations of learning as well to understand the implementation of this project, its benefits and difficulties for the autonomy of educational agents (teachers and coordinators) for work and for studies. The starting point for the research was the question: "Does the EMAI project have in its text a theoretical and philosophical support that provides autonomy to teachers, which is so necessary for a critical reflection on their own pedagogical practice?". And to answer it, a qualitative methodology was used for both the analysis of printed material as for the analysis of semi-structured interviews. The search, therefore, focused on the study of the concept of autonomy to understanding the teacher identity in the face of the said project implementation. From then on, the need for methodological and conceptual innovations in relation to study and work with Mathematics for both initial and continuing education of teachers who will act in the early years of basic education. As a result, it was observed both from the material and the interviews, that the project permits the autonomy, even though relative, to the teacher's work, conditioned by determinations of EMAI project. Therefore, it was conducted towards initial and continuing education, such as possibilities of conceptual and methodological advances in the work with Mathematics; and also towards building a real autonomy and teacher identity in the production and implementation of the curriculum.

By presenting attractive and interactive teaching strategies, the use of these spaces can contribute to a more effective scientific literacy for both students and teachers. From this perspective, the general objective of this research was to analyze the possibilities and limits of a proposal for the continuous training of teachers from the initial years of Elementary Education, which seeks a re - signification of the relationship between science teaching in non - formal spaces and school teaching practice. In order to meet this objective, the research was carried out from January 2016 to March 2018 at the Center of Sciences and Planetarium of Pará - CCPP, located in the city of Belém in the state of Pará. Subjects were science teachers who worked in classes from the initial years of elementary school and qualitative data were collected through participant observation, questionnaires and interviews. The analysis of the collected data was used the set of techniques of Content Analysis. Through the results obtained from the survey of the profile of the teachers were carried out training actions where the proposal took into account the critical analysis of the teaching reality.

Full textAbstract:
The transition period for a child into a new school lasts much longer than the initial visit and the first few days. And, even if a school made sincere attempts to welcome the child, introduce him or her to peers, and make sure the student was comfortable in the new surroundings, those gestures may “wear off” after a while. That’s why it’s important to develop a system for checking in with those students who have changed schools for reasons other than the typical moves from elementary to middle or middle to high school. A few indicators can help demonstrate whether a student has adjusted well to his or her new community or still feels disconnected or out of step with other students—grades, attendance, participation in extracurricular activities, and behavior. In this chapter, some different strategies schools are using to monitor how students are transitioning and address concerns or gaps in a student’s progress are also highlighted. As mentioned earlier, the needs of students who experienced a proactive move may be quite different from those of students who left a prior school because they or their parents were reacting to something. How is the student performing? Is homework being turned in on time? If the student’s grades are lower than they were in his or her previous school, it’s possible that he or she has missed some critical pieces of the content being taught. Review district and community-based options for getting the student some tutoring or additional instruction to fill in those learning gaps. Students who change schools in the middle of the year sometimes miss days because of a move. This can lead to a drop in performance, as noted in Chapter 1. If the child continues to miss days, the problem will likely get worse. Missing too many days of school can be an indicator that the child is struggling with the transition and hasn’t made the connections to students and adults that are necessary to develop a sense of belonging.

Full textAbstract:
The Children’s Aid Society’s concept of community schools came to life in February 1992 with the opening of the Salomé Ureña de Henriquez Middle Academies (Intermediate School [IS] 218) and the opening in March 1993 of the Ellen Lurie School (Primary School [PS] 5). These were the first community schools operated by The Children’s Aid Society (CAS) in partnership with New York City’s Board of Education. PS 5 is an elementary school whose students advance to middle school at IS 218. The model has evolved into a well-integrated, multidimensional community school involving CAS, the Board (now Department) of Education, and the parents and many other partners from the broader community. Before the two schools opened, several years were spent in preparation and planning. Initially, CAS surveyed New York City communities to identify those that would benefit most from CAS’s services. This was part of an ongoing effort on CAS’s part to examine its current programs in order to modify them to meet current social and familial needs. The survey led to the selection of the Washington Heights community, which was characterized by a large influx of recent immigrants, substantial poverty, large families, and a dearth of services. A more intensive study conducted by CAS in 1987 had documented the dramatic needs of families in this community and the shortage of services available to them. The school system ranked 32nd of 32 districts in nearly every category. The type of poverty that characterizes new immigrants was endemic: very low-wage jobs, two and three families sharing one apartment, and a reluctance to accept outside help. Washington Heights was the substance- abuse and drug-trafficking hub for the tri-state area and had the city’s highest homicide rate. Teenage pregnancy rates were also among the city’s highest. This community is not unlike those that CAS has traditionally served throughout its 150-year history. What was to be strikingly different was how CAS would address these problems. In setting out to plan a service model, CAS drew on its long and rich history of operating community centers in low-income neighborhoods.

The theme aboutreader formation in Brazil is recurrent in different debates throughout history, considering its importance for the construction of a literate society.This study aimed to draw the reader's profileaged 6 to 10 yearsof the literary text, making an interface with the influence of the Digital Age in the choice of textual genres (fairy tales, legends, fables, among others) and in the formats of reading adhered to by students.Therefore, we aimed to identify the different styles of reading, as well as the ideological aspects inherent to this phenomenon, based on the frequency and formats of reading, namely: on screen and on paper.As a methodology, we carried out a bibliographic survey and applied exploratory research to private school teachers, in a city in the interior of the State of Rio de Janeiro.The survey data point to the great challenge of waking up children's appetite for the universe of reading in the Digital Age. Of the interviewed teachers,most defend the importance of literary reading, however most prefer videos and movies to reading.According to the teachers' testimony, children who like to read develop more creativity and criticality. The research revealed that the option for the act ofreading in detriment to other possibilities of access to culture receives a lot of influence from the encouragement of the school and the family.The sampling highlighted the importance of the literary ambience. We hope that the studywill contribute to the thought of new strategies to encourage reading, by portraying the students' inclination towards audiovisual language

Full textAbstract:
Many educators in the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) disciplines hope to improve the number of students interested in and prepared for these more difficult disciplines through innovative teaching, demonstrations and hosted camps. Research has shown that motivation is a much smaller part of the issue; student learning outcomes are much more sensitive to fundamental academic ability. Current curriculum design fails most students miserably in helping them bridge the gap from concrete learning to abstract thought and understanding in the middle school years. Thus, they are ill-prepared to engage in the more advanced learning required to pursue the STEM disciplines, a result that no amount of innovative teaching can correct. This paper will review the performance data from industrial nations at the 4th Grade and 8th Grade levels and illustrate curriculum differences between industrial countries producing higher percentages of STEM graduates. Examination of the performance effects of many variables, including number and sequencing of topics studied, time spent on homework, teacher credentials, access to technology, class size and dollars allocated per student, yields some surprising results. The problem is not as sensitive to many of these variables as one might expect. However, the variables that seem to provide promise for significant improvement from the current state of STEM education are related to topic coverage and manner of presentation. Final recommendations include reduction in the number of topics introduced in any given year with a corresponding reorganization of the curricula, to allow STEM teachers in the middle school to focus on the transitional learning that must occur to prepare for more advanced studies.

Anumber of youth movement activities, e.g. running, walking, jumping, climbing trees, throw-ing and catching a ball, has been on a decline in the current European cultural space. The results of this research contribute to broadening the knowledge about the level of basic motor competencies and qualifications of the 1st and 2nd grade elementary children in the Slovak Republic. The primary data on the basic motor competencies and qualifications of the examined group (n=307, age = 7.58 ± 0.69 years) were collected by means of the MOBAK 1‒2 test battery (Herrmann et al., 2018b). The significance of differences between boys (n=156, age 7.62 ± 0.69) and girls (n=151, age 7.55 ± 0.70) was evaluated by Student’s t-test in two independent groups. The boys in the first grade (n = 97) achieved a significantly better performance in basic motor competency object movements (x = 5.17 ± 1.79 points) than their female peers (n=88, x = 3.52 ± 1.78). The girls in the second grade did not achieve a statistically better performance in the movement qualifications in throwing, balancing and rolling than the first-graders of the same gender. Knowledge of the level of basic motor com-petencies and qualifications of the Slovak elementary school children allows the national and European educational and cultural authorities to design and improve the content of physical and sport education classes.

A collaborative design project has been implemented in a junior-level materials selection and manufacturing course. The team-based design problem involved the design of playground equipment for elementary school children. Focus groups of elementary students and a review of applicable construction standards were used to set design requirements. Each team comprised undergraduate on-campus students, undergraduate distance education students and junior/senior high school technology students. Initial design choices were made by the entire group. Subsequent calculations of stress, deformations, etc. to refine the design as well as choices of materials and manufacturing processes were primarily the purview of the undergraduate students. Drafting and integration of the design segments into a complete computer model was the responsibility of the high school students. Continuous communication between the groups was required for the process to be successful. This collaboration was facilitated via online forums and site visits. An overview of the project structure is presented along with a summary of the project outcomes and recommendations for improving the process.

Many students struggle with mathematics in late elementary school, particularly on the topic of fractions. In a best evidence syntheses of research on increasing achievement in elementary school mathematics, Pelligrini et al. (2018) highlighted tutoring as a way to help students. Online tutoring is attractive because costs may be lower and logistics easier than with face-to-face tutoring. Cignition developed an approach that combines online 1:1 tutoring with a fractions game, called FogStone Isle. The game provides students with additional learning opportunities and provides tutors with information that they can use to plan tutoring sessions. A randomized controlled trial investigated the research question: Do students who participate in online tutoring and a related mathematical game learn more about fractions than students who only have access to the game? Participants were 144 students from four schools, all serving low-income students with low prior mathematics achievement. In the Treatment condition, students received 20-25 minute tutoring sessions twice per week for an average of 18 sessions and also played the FogStone Isle game. In the Control condition, students had access to the game, but did not play it often. Control students did not receive tutoring. Students were randomly assigned to condition after being matched on pre-test scores. The same diagnostic assessment was used as a pre-test and as a post-test. The planned analysis looked for differences in gain scores ( post-test minus pre-test scores) between conditions. We conducted a t-test on the aggregate gain scores, comparing conditions; the results were statistically significant (t = 4.0545, df = 132.66, p-value < .001). To determine an effect size, we treated each site as a study in a meta-analysis. Using gain scores, the effect size was g=+.66. A more sophisticated treatment of the pooled standard deviation resulted in a corrected effect size of g=.46 with a 95% confidence interval of [+.23,+.70]. Students who received online tutoring and played the related Fog Stone Isle game learned more; our research found the approach to be efficacious. The Pelligrini et al. (2018) meta-analysis of elementary math tutoring programs found g = .26 and was based largely on face-to-face tutoring studies. Thus, this study compares favorably to prior research on face-to-face mathematics tutoring with elementary students. Limitations are discussed; in particular, this is an initial study of an intervention under development. Effects could increase or decrease as development continues and the program scales. Although this study was planned long before the current pandemic, results are particularly timely now that many students are at home under shelter-in-place orders due to COVID-19. The approach taken here is feasible for students at home, with tutors supporting them from a distance. It is also feasible in many other situations where equity could be addressed directly by supporting students via online tutors.

Findings from the first two years of a 3-year evaluation of the PROMISE Model pilot are presented in this policy brief that seeks to understand the extent to which school principals know, understand, and act upon research-based principles for English Language Learners (ELL) and their intersection with the California Professional Standards for Educational Leadership related to promoting ELL success. Surveys and focus groups were used to gather data from school principals at fifteen schools throughout Southern California including early childhood, elementary, middle, and high schools. School principals identified several areas where PROMISE serves as a beacon of hope in promoting and validating critical conversations around a collective vision for success for all learners including ELL, bilingual/biliterate, and monolingual students. Educational and policy recommendations are provided for the following areas: 1) recruitment and selection of personnel and professional development; 2) accountability, communication and support; and 3) university-based educational leadership programs. This policy brief concludes with a call for school principals to facilitate the development, implementation, and stewardship of a vision for learning that highlights success for English Learners and shared by the school and district community.
