Abstract

This essay aims to analyze the relations stablished with the math standards taught at school, andmath used on a daily bases outside school fromnumeracy practice, by a group of adolescents and grown up students, of a public school in the Rio Pardo Valley region, in the State of Rio Grande do Sul. The research found numeracy practicea problem with teenagers and adults students in the academic and nonacademic content. The theoretical assumptions of the research are based on numeracy and transfer concept. This study uses a qualitative approach when it investigates the transfers from the math standard taught in school to the world. Five students from 2° year of high school participated the study (in 2014). The research material was produced from the math class observation, questionnaires, interacting with the students, notes in diaries and dynamic activities with the students.Three analyses have emerged from the research: a) what is the best purchase option. b) Do the students actually practice what they learned at school? c) Are the math issues taught at school used in very same way as they are outside classrooms? As a result for the debate up on this research, through numeracy practice with the students it comes to conclusion that there is no knowledge transfer, math standard taught at school is not transferred to daily bases use, meaning that in different contexts no subject remains the same.
