The purpose of this study is to investigate how a teacher guide can provide tips and support for teachers to develop their students subject specific language. The method used in the study is a mixture of qualitative- and quantitative content analysis. We have analyzed one chapter from a teacher guide for Year 1, and one chapter from a teacher guide for Year 3. Only the part including tips about activities have been analyzed and a total of 50 activities have been analyzed. The perspective that permeates the study is the socio-cultural perspective on learning, since the socio-cultural perspective is about communication, and so is the student´s language development. The results of this study conclude that teachers receive limited support from the activities in the guide regarding how to teach students to analyze mathematical texts. However, it appears that the teacher receives many tips on multimodal forms of expression. The results also show that there are differences in the content between the teacher´s guides in year 1 and year 3.
