Este estudo visa compreender como se caracteriza o raciocínio estatístico de
crianças de 5 e 6 anos. O estudo apresenta a interpretação do raciocínio estatístico
revelado pelas crianças através da análise das suas representações. Começo por discutir
teoricamente o conceito de raciocínio estatístico, os princípios inerentes a um ambiente
de aprendizagem que favoreça o seu desenvolvimento e o papel das representações,
especificando depois as características do trabalho em Organização e Tratamento de
Dados na educação pré-escolar. O estudo segue uma abordagem de natureza qualitativa
sob um paradigma interpretativo e a recolha de dados realizou-se em 2015 através da
observação participante e da análise documental. Os resultados sugerem que a maioria
do grupo de crianças reconhece as diferentes formas de representação dos dados,
identifica os seus nomes e sabe explicar as diferentes representações. No âmbito de dois
pequenos projetos de investigação estatística, as crianças atenderam às suas diferentes
fases, mostrando-se capazes de representar e interpretar dados recolhidos por si.
Algumas das crianças preocuparam-se em organizar os dados no momento da sua
recolha, classificando-os, sendo que uma delas organizou os dados, de modo
espontâneo, numa tabela de frequências. As crianças evidenciaram um raciocínio
estatístico sobre os dados e sobre a sua representação.
ABSTRACT This study sought to understand and characterize the statistical reasoning of 5 and 6 year old children. The study presents the interpretation of the revealed statistical reasoning revealed by children throughout the analysis of their interpretations. We first start to review and discuss the theoretical concept of statistical reasoning, the principles of the learning environment for promoting children development and the role of representations, as well as the organization and data analysis characteristics. This qualitative study is based on an interpretative approach. The data collection was conducted in 2015 by an participatory observation and document analysis. The results suggest that the majority of the children acknowledge the different types of data representations, identify the names of different types of data and know how to explain the different representations. As for the two small projects of statistical research conducted, children considered the different phases of the research and were able to represent and interpret the collected data. Some children were concerned about organizing and classifying the data during the data collection. One child has autonomously organized the data collected in on table of frequencies. The children evidenced to have a statistical reasoning about the data and data representation.
