We seek to understand the medical orientation to promote hygienic education in the João Barbalho school, a structure created to be the model of a republican school institution in Pernambuco. The period covers the creation of the Group and the process of expansion of these institutions in Pernambuco. Required documents, reports of school groups, educational legislation, and hygiene theses of the studied period were analyzed. This research is based theoretically and methodologically on the assumptions of cultural history, and studies related to the history of education in Brazil. We perceive that Pernambuco school groups were formed late compared to groups from other Brazilian states. To ensure the proper functioning guidelines, should be followed: the practice of physical education, anthropometric examinations, and intelligence tests to establish the profile of students for the constitution of homogeneous classes intellectually, physically and racially.

Os professores primários paranaenses denominados efetivos tinham formação diferente daquela ofertada pela Escola Normal e possuíam, em sua maioria, somente o Curso Primário. Nos estudos aqui apresentados interessou-nos saber que saberes matemáticos o curso primário proporcionava a esses futuros professores efetivos durante a Primeira República. Amparados na história cultural, buscamos respostas nos documentos oficiais pertinentes, em especial, nos Programas de Ensino. O estudo evidencia para os professores efetivos da Primeira República uma formação geral, com os saberes necessários a ensinar, carecendo em grande medida, dos saberes para ensinar matemática. As mudanças ocorridas nos Programas buscavam sustentar a finalidade do ensino primário, sem proporcionar a formação para ensinar, visto não ser essa a sua finalidade.Palavras-chave: História da Educação.

Saberes Matemáticos.AbstractThe primary teachers of Paraná called effective had different formation from that offered by the Normal School and had, in their majority, only the Primary Course. In the studies presented here, we were interested to know what mathematical knowledge the primary course provided to these future effective teachers during the First Republic. Based on cultural history, we seek answers in the pertinent official documents, especially in the Teaching Programs. The study shows for the effective teachers of the First Republic a general formation, with the necessary knowledge to teach, lacking in great measure, the knowledge to teach mathematics. The changes that occurred in the Programs sought to support the purpose of primary education, without providing the training to teach, since this is not its purpose.Keyword: History of Education.
