University-School Integration

The Use of “Power Roulette” in High School

Abstract

This experience report describes the application of the playful activity “Roulette of Powers”, developed by students on the Mathematics course at UNESPAR - Paranavaí Campus, under the guidance of the teacher responsible for the subject “Teaching Numbers and Algebra”, who also works as a teacher in the basic education classes at the Silvio Vidal Military Civic College - EFMP, where the activity was developed. The activity was applied to high school students and aimed to make learning about powers more attractive. The work highlights the importance of the university-school integration promoted by the teacher, contributing significantly to good practice at the school and to the training of future teachers. The results indicated a high level of engagement from the high school students, with active participation throughout the activity, observing collaborative actions between group members and competitive actions between the groups, which reinforced the relevance of the partnership as a practical training ground.
