The predominance of abstract methods that do not encourage student autonomy are obstacles to teaching mathematical concepts in geometry. Aiming to overcome this scenario, this qualitative research developed and applied an Interactive Didactic Sequence that integrated Problem-Based Learning with manipulable materials and demonstrative use of GeoGebra for teaching positional geometry. The proposal was applied in a high school class in a public school in the interior of Rio Grande do Norte. The approach stimulates dialogue and student autonomy and articulates concrete and abstract knowledge. The results indicated that the proposal was effective in generating engagement and the construction of geometric knowledge in students, demonstrating the positive contribution of the proposal to the teaching of positional geometry. As a challenge, the initial difficulty in mobilizing students was observed, attributed to the unfamiliarity with the methodologies used. The main limitation of the study is the need of assessment instruments for students' formal mathematical knowledge, which should be considered in future studies.
