	abstract = {<p>Games are commonly appointed as a methodological tool capable of promoting students{\textquoteright} effective learning. In this context, this study intends to analyze the impact of mathematical discussions developed while<br />
playing a polynomial game. Namely it intends to analyze the impact on the consolidation of mathematical concepts previously worked in the classroom and on the communications skills. Two case studies where developed involving 10th grade students. Data gathering was based on direct observation and an inquiry. The main conclusions suggest that the game encouraged the discussion about the mathematical contents and therefore promoted the development of the mathematical discourse. Besides that, it allowed a deeper apprehension of mathematical concepts, and the overcome of some difficulties.</p>
