This research considers the need to train teachers who can effectively integrate technology for teaching and learning mathematics. The primary goal of this is showcase a successful training experience by identifying describing some indicators technological pedagogical content knowledge acquired pre-service early childhood education during their participation in initial programme. Specifically, we focus on different ways representing mathematical concepts processes that be activated including such modes representation. participants were 28 PECTs, organised into groups planned set tasks using teach geometric concepts. results show employed variety representation, translations transformations (connections), fostering emergence processes. Thus, our proposal was satisfactory sense, suggesting its potential applicability across diverse subjects, particularly those which play relevant role. Also, analysis conducted may extrapolated subjects others than
