This study presents a pedagogical proposal that articulates digital literacy with the teaching of multiplication in the early years of Elementary School. The central objective is to re-signify mathematics learning through the integration of interactive digital technologies. The methodology is characterized as qualitative bibliographic research, which includes the development of an applied, propositional model without immediate empirical validation. A detailed didactic sequence composed of five lessons was developed, integrating interactive digital resources—such as the "Tabuada Divertida Infantil" (Fun Children's Times Table) application and the "Wordwall" online platform—with concrete activities. This aims to promote the conceptual understanding of multiplication, moving beyond mere mechanical memorization. The proposal recognizes mathematics as a human cultural construct and social practice, and conceives digital literacy as a set of literacies interacting through digital devices. The main contribution is a structured and replicable model of technological integration with the potential to simultaneously develop students' mathematical competencies and critical digital literacy skills, thereby preparing them for active participation in a progressively digitized society. Structural limitations related to unequal access to technology in Brazilian public schools are recognized, demanding contextualized adaptations for effective implementation.Downloads
