Résumé
In Norway, the curriculum requires kindergarten teachers to use digital tools in their work. Therefore, teacher educators and kindergarten preservice teachers need to investigate whatkind of digital tools can encourage children's engagement in mathematics. In this article, kindergarten preservice teachers’ descriptions of how they used digital games with children during their internship period were analysed using Artifact-Centric Activity Theory. Thepreservice teachers seemed to justify digital games against the mathematics the children are required to engage with according to the curriculum. However, the pedagogical approaches encouraged by the curricula were not so evident in their descriptions.
