Abstract

Between 2000 and 2005 a didactic research project has taken place in kindergarten with five-year old. The starting point of such research consisted of finding out if children were able to start learning some statistics and probability notions, thus determining which notions were feasible to be learnt The research was connected to the feasibility of implementing the “contrato didáctico aproximativo” (approximate didactical contract) proposed by Brousseau-Chevallard and the organization of classes into phases, in the framework of a Dialectics Tool-Object defined by Regine Douady. During this project a chain of didactic macrosituations was designed, implemented, analysed and restructured.
