Abstract

This paper proposes the use of playful activities as a pedagogical tool for teaching assistant teachers about probability to high school students, with a special focus on those who face difficulties in mathematics (Aleixo, 2014). The methodology adopted consists of a field analysis, through questionnaires to third-year high school students. The study investigated the use of materials such as dice and bars, exploring popular and easy-to-use games in everyday life, with the aim of investigating the effectiveness of these strategies in overcoming difficulties in mathematics. Through playful and interactive approaches, the teacher can teach the contents of the subject in a way that arouses the interest of students and promotes the meaningful construction of probabilistic knowledge. The results of the research indicate that the use of dice and bars as pedagogical tools proved to be effective in making teaching probability more dynamic, stimulating students' investigative work and contributing to learning. In addition, this approach favors the development of skills such as logical reasoning and problem-solving.
