| description | The use of mathematics is an activity present on human beings' routine, in order to quantify, value and communicate through numbers. The Problem Solving is one, among many ways, that Children's Education teacher can provide to small children, with the purpose of building complex and logical notions. In this context, the work purpose was to check the mathematic construction in small children under the Problem Solving Methodology, described by Smole, Diniz and Cândido and Mantovani de Assis. This methodology involves simple activities, which aim to involve the children's complete logical capacity, for example, searching alternatives and surveying hypothesis for a difficulty emerging during the class routine; encourage orality and the element description; present make-believe and cooperation games, among other possibilities. This work was carried out in children aged 5 and 6 years old, who attend Children's Education at Child Interaction and Education Center (CECI - Unicamp). As results, it was obtained that the methodology using Problem Solving provided the constitution of complex mathematic concepts in a playful and pleasing way, as well as the learning in an effective way, since students presented understanding and construction of logical mathematic structures. Finally, this methodology provided small children with self-confidence, freedom of choice, of thinking, of narrating, of criticizing, and involving with numbers. |

Situações problemas. Educação infantil. The use of mathematics is an activity present on human beings' routine, in order to quantify, value and communicate through numbers. The Problem Solving is one, among many ways, that Children's Education teacher can provide to small children, with the purpose of building complex and logical notions. In this context, the work purpose was to check the mathematic construction in small children under the Problem Solving Methodology, described by Smole, Diniz and Cândido and Mantovani de Assis. This methodology involves simple activities, which aim to involve the children's complete logical capacity, for example, searching alternatives and surveying hypothesis for a difficulty emerging during the class routine; encourage orality and the element description; present make-believe and cooperation games, among other possibilities.

O uso da matemática é uma atividade que está presente na rotina dos seres humanos, a fim de quantificar, valorar e comunicar-se por meio dos números. A Resolução de Problemas é uma, dentre muitas maneiras, que os professores de Educação Infantil podem proporcionar às crianças pequenas, com o intuito de construir noções complexas e lógicas. Neste contexto, o objetivo do trabalho foi de verificar a construção matemática em crianças pequenas sob a metodologia de Resoluções de Problemas, descritas por Smole, Diniz e Cândido e Mantovani de Assis. Esta metodologia envolve atividades simples que buscam envolver toda a capacidade lógica das crianças, como por exemplo: buscar alternativas e levantar hipóteses para uma dificuldade que surgiu durante o cotidiano da turma; incentivar a oralidade e a descrição de elementos; apresentar jogos de faz-de-conta e de cooperação, entre outras possibilidades. O trabalho foi conduzido em crianças com idade de 5 a 6 anos, que frequentam a Educação Infantil no Centro de Educação e Convivência Infantil (CECI – Unicamp). Como resultados obteve-se que a metodologia que utiliza a Resolução de Problemas, proporcionou a constituição de conceitos complexos de matemática de maneira lúdica e prazerosa, como também, a aprendizagem de forma efetiva, pois os alunos apresentaram compreensão e construção de estruturas lógicas matemáticas. Por fim, esta metodologia ofereceu às crianças pequenas a autoconfiança, a liberdade de escolher, de pensar, de narrar, de criticar, e envolver-se com os números.
