Our research falls within the general field of the analysis of the teacher’s activity and focuses on the specific case of teaching the concept of «limit to the function» in the Spanish secondary school system. Using the anthropological focus of didactics (Chevallard, 1998) as a general theoretical frame, we propose an investigative methodology for the analysis of mathematical organizations recreated by the teacher in the classroom in collaboration with his/her pupils and the respective didactic organizations that allow their reconstruction.
