Resumo: The present study examined, from a development perspective, three indicators of number sense: meaning of numbers, relative magnitude of digits in numbers and distance between numbers in the numerical sequence. Fifty children in the 1st and 2nd grade of elementary school performed three tasks, each related to one of these indicators. Cluster Analysis was used to define the profile of the participants regarding their understanding of number. Thus, they were divided into two groups: children with a good domain and those with a limited domain. The most skilled children performed better than the less skilled children in assigning meaning to numbers and in relation to the notion of the relative magnitude of the digits in numbers. However, assigning meaning to numbers was the most difficult task for participants in both profiles. The role played by formal and informal experiences in the mathematical knowledge of children is emphasized.

Cinquenta crianças alunas do 1º e 2º ano do Ensino Fundamental realizaram três tarefas, cada uma relativa a um desses indicadores. Utilizou-se a Análise de Agrupamentos para definir o perfil dos participantes quanto ao conhecimento que apresentavam sobre números que foram divididos em dois grupos: crianças com um bom domínio e aquelas com um domínio limitado. As crianças mais habilidosas tiveram um melhor desempenho do que as menos habilidosas em atribuir significado aos números e em relação à noção da magnitude relativa dos dígitos em números. Contudo, atribuir significado aos números foi a tarefa mais difícil para os participantes de ambos os perfis. O papel desempenhado pelas experiências formais e informais no conhecimento matemático de crianças é enfatizado.Universidade Estadual de Campinas2021-10-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionTextoinfo:eu-repo/semantics/otherapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/zetetike/article/view/866095110.20396/zet.v29i00.8660951Zetetike; Vol. 29 (2021): Publicação Contínua; e021023Zetetike; Vol. 29 (2021): Publicação Contínua; e021023Zetetike; v. 29 (2021): Publicação Contínua; e0210232176-1744reponame:Zetetiké (Online)instname:Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)instacron:UNICAMPporhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/zetetike/article/view/8660951/27486https://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/zetetike/article/view/8660951/27487Brazil; 21ts CenturyRecife; Século 21Copyright (c) 2021 Zetetikehttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSpinillo, Alina GalvãoCorrea, JaneCruz, Maria Soraia Silva2024-01-23T13:32:26Zoai:ojs.periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br:article/8660951Revistahttp://www.fe.unicamp.br/zetetike/PUBhttps://periodicos.sbu.unicamp.br/ojs/index.php/zetetike/oaizetetike@unicamp.br2176-17440104-4877opendoar:2024-01-23T13:32:26Zetetiké (Online) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)false
