Abstract

Math is essential during our entire life and it could have a lot of benefits for the kids if we introduce math games in a fun and creative way to them in an early age. The introduction of ludic activities in the classroom can lead to more effective learning since it can stimulate her creativity and helps to grow a desire to participate the class. The teacher and the school coordinator they do together a planning using the ‘BNCC’ as a guide for those ludic activities, according to the children age. For that reason, study about the Ludicity and Math on kindergarten, will contribute to the teacher's professional formation and so we can assist the children to evolve while they play, developing their abilities of focus; socializing, memory skills and values constructions.When the children learn by playing, the learning becomes more and more promising. Through this article we investigate how it could be developed the initials notions at math in the age of five, that is written on 'BNCC' (Common National Curriculum Base), such as: counting; ordination; quantities relation; measurements; comparing of weights and length; distance evaluation; recognition of geometric forms; knowledge and recognition of cardinal and ordinal numbers. The method utilized for this article is the bibliography research, we used published books and articles that can been find online and also places like Unisanta’s and USP library and the google schoolar. The reason for the title of this project is because we want to change the concept that math is hard and we want to bring more meaning towards the theme. The ludicity it helps in the construction and evolution of the kids, the school that propose to implement ludic activities must have a plan infrastructure and prepared teachers in which they always need to develop ways to improve their classes. The institution it can't only prioritize the educational success, but also the formation of citizens, because the immediate consequence of that educational action is the learning in all dimensions: social, cognitive, relational and personal.So, it's important for the child to have this first contact with math using ludic activities, in a way that the school and the teacher are prepared for this.
