The work consists of three chapters. In the first chapter, the theoretical foundation is elaborated where topics such as: the availability of concrete material in educational institutions and pedagogical approaches for the development of the proposal are addressed. In the second chapter the statistical part is developed by means of the use of a survey and two interviews, the survey was applied to students of 3rd year of high school of Santa Mariana de Jesus school, the results are presented considering aspects like the use of teaching strategies and application of concrete material in the topic of conics, For the interviews, a teacher from the "Galo Plaza Lasso" school and a teacher from the "Alemán Stiehle" school were interviewed. As they work in different educational contexts and have different teaching methodologies, they provided very useful information for the design and elaboration of the concrete material as well as the structuring of the methodological guide.
