The proposals for teaching mathematics are very complex and have been over time, at the upper basic level, where there are more complex phases that the student must deal with. The intention of this document was to determine what the teachers of the mathematics area of two public schools think about Piaget´s psychology in the education of mathematics in students and thus validate a doctoral proposal of the main author of this article. The research was carried out with a cross-section of the month of January and March 2021, through a study with a quantitative approach. A survey with 10 items was applied to the total population, that is, the convenience sample was used, which consisted of 36 people from the two educational units. Cronbach's alpha resulted in 0.9. It was concluded that the hypothesis that teachers do use Piaget's principles in their teachings, but not enough, since the highest indicators barely reached 57.8%, it was also found that in the correlational analysis, the formal operational variable it has an impact of 85.5% on mathematics education.

Keywords : Mathematical thinking; Piaget; mathematical logic; operational formal; mathematics education.
