Latent Class Analysis (LCA) is a statistical method that can help researchers interested in better understanding the movement behaviors (MB) of children, based on the analysis of the level of physical activity (PA) and sedentary time (ST). This study aimed to evaluate and compare two models LCA (one for the accelerometer and one for the 24-hour…

Forty-two students from two public elementary schools from Northeast Brazil were selected. A pre-experimental design with pre-test/post-test was followed, using a questionnaire on…

The worldwide scientific community has been promoting science communication from colleges and universities to schools, and different tools for communicating scientific discoveries have been created. Among this variety of tools, our choice fell on a storybook. The book, entitled "The Curious Case of Ants That Live in Galls," is directed…

In order to broaden findings beyond high-income countries, this study used path models to test associations between parent involvement and student achievement in Brazil using a 2017 census of public school students in fifth grade (N = 2,167,729, M[subscript age] = 11, 49 % female, 44% "Parda," 29% White, 11% Black, 3% Asian, 3%…

About half of the world's population remains without access to internet in an era of digital transformation. In this study, we aimed to investigate the impact of implementing the use of logic and mathematics through digital literacy on a population of elementary school students in a town in Northeast Brazil. In a non-randomized experimental…

The definition of table has not been introduced in Brazilian textbooks for the early years of elementary school. We see that charts and databases have been named but tables are not approached in the same way.
