The study examines by textual and linguistic analysis at to what extent the Finnish mathematics curriculum texts reflect and promote (1) the social turn in mathematics education, and (2) the different components of student’s mathematical proficiency like procedural fluency, conceptual understanding, strategic competence, adaptive reasoning and productive disposition. The main means in the linguistic analysis is a so-called verb analysis.
