This article seeks to investigate how the teacher of basic education uses the dialogue between ethnomathematics and the process of teaching and learning mathematics in his pedagogical practice. It is believed that when applying ethnomathematics in class, students are able to perceive that mathematics is related to their daily lives, thus improving their learning. It is a quantitative and qualitative exploratory study, which used the bibliography, direct observation and the questionnaire as a form of investigation. The results show that despite the difficulties faced by the researched school, the teacher seeks to apply ethnomathematics with his students, making them feel more valued, making the classes more attractive, where the teacher also gets greater participation from them. Thus, valuing the cultural reality of the students, it is possible to affirm that there is a better performance in the process of teaching and learning mathematics in basic education.
