Sumario:The present study aimed to analyze how an education that prioritizes tasks of exploratory- investigative nature can contribute to the generation and/or mobilization of geometric concepts in the 7th grade students of elementary school. The investigation of a qualitative nature, in the form descriptive and interpretative occurred in a public school of Pilar do Sul (SP). The technique of triangulation of data involved audio, video and photographs’ records, students’ written records and observation notes of the participant teacher - researcher. The survey results allowed that with the experiences, the students used a mathematical language with greater mastery of mathematical terms, furthermore, they demonstrated appropriating and/or expand figural concepts like angles, straight, regular polygons and mobilized such knowledge during the exploration of the properties and relations of these objects.
