Abstract

This text presents an investigation aimed at analyzing the potential of games in promoting Statistical Literacy. It provides theoretical references about games and Statistical Literacy related to investigative scenarios. Based on these frameworks, this research is qualitative in nature and follows an action research design. The corpus consists of participant observation and field notes by the teacher-researcher, considering moments of discussion groups and activity development. The research was conducted in a public school in São Paulo - SP, with a 7th-grade class. From this, it was possible to verify that games, besides presenting ludic and motivating potentials, can also assist in promoting Statistical Literacy and the creation of Investigative Scenarios. Therefore, it is believed that games mediated in favor of statistics aid in the construction of critical citizens, empowering them in decision-making processes.
