Uma proposta de sequência didática utilizando aprendizagem significativa de matemática em estudantes com deficiência intelectual

Abstract

The present study addresses a niche of Inclusive Mathematical Education, emphasizing the importance of an individual and specialized approach for students with Intellectual Disabilities. In the context of education, several laws regulate the need for curricular and methodological adaptations, as well as the provision of accessibility resources, to ensure that students with disabilities have equitable access to the learning process. Considering the needs and potential of these students, Meaningful Learning, based on Ausubel's theory, is suggested as a methodology to be used by educators. The proposed teaching plan aims to develop skills in addition and subtraction of decimal numbers, considering their practical application in daily life. In addition to improving mathematical skills in the school environment, the goal is to promote greater autonomy and self-confidence among students. Therefore, it is necessary for educators and educational institutions to work together to ensure access to quality education for all students, regardless of their needs or limitations.
