When teaching about language functions, it is important that teachers explicitly teach the vocabulary and phrases associated with each language function. For example, when teaching the language function of compare/contrast teachers may teach the following vocabulary: both, similar, also, different, in contrast, similarly, etc. During the lesson planning and preparation stage, teachers should brainstorm the vocabulary words associated with the language function that will be taught. It is important that as students become familiar with the vocabulary associated with each language function that more advanced functional vocabulary is introduced to students.In addition to functional vocabulary, students must also be introduced to grammatical structures associated with each language function. For example, when teaching the language function of compare/contrast, teachers might teach comparative adjectives or superlative adjectives.
