    El objetivo de este artículo es comprender cómo se desarrolla el razonamiento proporcional de los alumnos del 6.° año de escolaridad, en especial en lo que se refiere a la distinción entre situaciones que involucran y que no involucran proporcionalidad directa. La experiencia de enseñanza está fundamentada en cinco tareas basadas en el cuento El conejo y la tortuga, realizadas en grupos dentro de la clase, y discutidas después colectivamente por todo el curso.

    The objective of this article is to understand how proportional reasoning is developed in 6th-grade students, especially in terms of the distinction between situations that either involve or not direct proportionality. The teaching experience is composed by five tasks based on the short story The rabbit and the turtle, carried out in groups inside the classroom, and later discussed collectively by the whole class.

    L'objectif de cet article est comprendre la manière dont le raisonnement proportionnel des étudiants de sixième année de scolarité est développé, surtout en ce qui fait référence à la distinction entre situations qui impliquent et qui n'impliquent pas de proportionnalité directe. L'expérience de l'enseignement est basée sur cinq tâches basées sur le conte « Le lapin et la tortue », réalisées en groupes à l'intérieur de la classe et discutées plus tard collectivement par le cours entier.
