This study employed the social semiotic method to analyze the 9th grade textbook in Jordan. Through analyzes three texts-related major aspects: intellectual function, interpersonal function, and textual function. The results showed that math is abstract, and assertive, and that math is located in a self-independent realm, with its own mathematical beings and with the existence of an official and far relationship between the book and the student. The math textbook tends to show the students as if they are merely ordered implementers.
