| Research Abstract |
We investigated mathematical literatures for school pupils and collected first mathematical sentences, difficult to get the meaning, or easy for understanding, and others. Comparing them, we obtained how to teach writing sentences easy for understanding. We made a syllabus to teach how to avoid writing sentences difficult to gel the meaning and obtained a principle to make the sentences easy for understanding.
We also investigated the relationship between logical thinking and linguistic expression.
