A list of expressions often used in problem solving in Maths 
We need to figure out exactly what they 
want. 
This is like the problem we did on . . . 
Let’s break it down into parts. First, . . . We need to identity the . . . 
Information that I need is . . . because . . We don’t know . . ., so let’s make it a variable. 
There are different ways to solve it. Maybe the data table will work because . . . 
The best solution is . . . because . . . This answer makes sense because . . . 
I predict that . . . I think we need to try another way. 
We can draw this part as . . . I think that the answer is . . . because . . . 
We can check our answer by trying . . . This word means that the final units need to 
be in . . . 
I don’t think this information is 
important because . . . 
I bet that . . . because . . .

about the relationships between the 
mathematical and the physical. 
Does maths exist objectively or is it a human

For a maths expert, numbers have an 
authority all their own
