Abstract

This article presents a teaching proposal that aims to encourage the adherence of the Mathematical Olympiads in the classroom, aiming at learning and the inclusion of the deaf. In the particular case of this paper, we suggest the statements present in the questions of the Kangaroo Maths Olympiad Brazil. It aims to contribute to the teaching of the concepts of percentage and area of plane figures, from two problems of the Maths Kangaroo Brazil. For this, we used Didactic Engineering as a research methodology, with the support of GeoGebra, the didactic situations were elaborated based on the Theory of Didactic Situations, from the concept of Olympic Didactic Situation, and were structured with the GeoGebra software. The association of Olympic Problems with GeoGebra enabled students to construct knowledge, based on a visual perception and manipulation of the software, as well as an interaction and inclusion of the student, providing him with the development of mathematical knowledge. Therefore, we consider that the results obtained were satisfactory for those involved in the process, in addition to providing readers with a reflection on the teaching of mathematics, the use of Olympic problems and software for its teaching, as well as the inclusion of students with special needs and their learning.
