ABSTRACT
Manipulatives are common tools in Mathematics classrooms of elementary school. Tangible interfaces aggregate the benefits of traditional manipulatives with the new forms of interaction provided by technology. This work proposes a methodology for the development of tangible interfaces for Mathematics teaching which would be suitable for Brazilian classrooms. To reach this aim, our design process is based on socio-culturalist principles and usability guidelines, placing the context-of-use analysis as a phase of utmost importance.
