| Sumario: | The present paper aims to analyze and interpret the dimensions of mathematical creativity raised in fifth grade students when they were working on the concept of area, focused on problem solving. We chose a qualitative approach of descriptive and interpretative nature, where fundamental ideas about Creativity and Problem Solving are presented. Next, the investigation Methodology highlights how data were collected. In data analysis and interpretation, it was observed that the work around creativity developed with students provided various rich and challenging experiences, such as the opportunity of new Mathematics learning, good interaction, socialization and discussion on the strategies they used from their intuition and previous knowledge. Another perception is that the dimensions of creativity were raised when they were thinking in different ways and coming up with a great number of resolutions for the problem. |
