Language Functions & Features Describe data and/or steps to solve problems using: ● Mathematical terms ( convert, customary, metric, unit, length, capacity, weight, mass, time ) ● Past tense doing verbs ( measured, converted ) to recount steps ● Connectors to order steps ( frst, next, then ) and indicate reasons ( because, so, that means, as a result ) ● Declarative statements to state conclusion (eg. The area in square yards is… ) ● Visuals ( charts ) to support approach and/or solution
