Abstract
This highlights the importance of exploring different calculation strategies and promoting meaningful learning, as recommended by the National Curriculum Parameters (PCNs). Despite this, many students face difficulties at the end of elementary school, showing a lack of understanding of mathematical concepts and their practical applicability. The Financial Education proposal aims to fill this gap by stimulating skills such as mental calculation, estimation and analysis of the reasonableness of results. However, the constant change of context in the exercises can make it difficult for students to understand. We therefore propose the use of tasks that stimulate the production of meanings by the students, allowing for different solving strategies and promoting discussion in the classroom. In this way, Financial Education as a cross-cutting theme in the mathematics curriculum aims to prepare students to face real-world challenges, promoting a broader and deeper understanding of mathematical concepts.
