Abstract

VILELA, Denise Silva  and  DORTA, Deiziele. O que é “desenvolver o raciocínio lógico”? Considerações a partir do livro Alice no país das maravilhas. R. Bras. Est. Pedag. [online]. 2010, vol.91, n.229, pp.634-651. ISSN 2176-6681.

The present article establishes relations among themes of the areas of Philosophy of Logic and Mathematics Education with the purpose of promoting pedagogical reflections about the aims of Mathematics in all levels: to develop the student’s logical reasoning. The purpose is to identify different ways of thinking, such as logical reasoning, through scenes from Alice in Wonderland. This work of Lewis Carroll has great richness not only concerning logical appeals, in which we explicit principles and rules of classical logics, but also concerning things without logic that are fantastic and show the importance of creativity and fantasy to child development.

Keywords : Thinking Development; Classical Logics; Early Childhood Education; Early Years Teaching.
