Abstract

From the discussions about the conceptions of teachers and their influence on teaching practice (PONTE, 1992; THOMPSON, 1997; CURY, 1999), was defined as the objective for this article to reflect on the conceptions of Multidisciplinary Teachers in Initial Formation in relation to Mathematics and its teaching in the Early Years of Elementary School. This qualitative research was carried out in the discipline of Methodology of Mathematics Teaching, of a Pedagogy Course, in the context of Emergency Remote Teaching. For data collection, was used a questionnaire composed of open questions related to conceptions and feelings of the participants in relation to Mathematics and its teaching. Data analysis was based on Discursive Textual Analysis. As conclusions, it was possible to understand that there is still a predominance of the utilitarian vision of Mathematics, but the conceptions about the Mathematics teaching of the research participants indicate a tendency to break with this view
