This research aims to analyze errors made by students in the 8th grade of elementary school in solving algebraic questions. Specific objectives are: a) analyze the types of errors made by students of 8th grade in solving algebraic questions b) to test teaching strategies drawn from the errors made by students using the Hot Potatoes software. The research is qualitative and took place in three stages. The first stage was developed in a public school in the city of Tupanciretã, with the participation of 23 students from 8th grade, to which was applied a test with questions on algebra. The second stage took place in a private school in the same county, with 10 students, also of 8th grade, applying the same test. In the third stage, we tested activities to overcome the errors, using the Hot Potatoes software. The literature review listed elements of: Algebra and its teaching, the National Curriculum Parameters and textbooks, error analysis and the use of technology in mathematics teaching. From the data collected, it was noticed that students come to the final series of elementary school with many difficulties in algebra, in particular on the distributive property of an operation and generalization of patterns. As a suggestion for future work related to these difficulties among students of 8th grade, we proposed a set of activities to be implemented through Hot Potatoes, comprising the product of this dissertation professional.
