Abstract

This study aims to explore different strategies that can facilitate the development of Physical Education classes and student engagement. It was developed at the José Ferreira Bastos Municipal School, located in Itabirito, Minas Gerais. Twenty-five fourth-grade students participated. The action plan focused on demonstrating the importance of adopting differentiated strategies to encourage students to participate in physical education classes. The objective of the action plan was to demonstrate how technology can be an ally of physical education teachers, improving students' engagement with physical activity. The theoretical basis for the plan was based on bibliographic research in articles and journals. The project was implemented at the José Ferreira Bastos Municipal School in Itabirito, Minas Gerais, in a fourth-grade class with 25 students. Through a game called Exergames, students had the opportunity to participate in differentiated activities involving various dance styles. Articles and journals were consulted for the theoretical basis. As a result, it was possible to observe that the class conducted using technology achieved its proposed objectives.
