This article focuses on disciplinary language construction in lower secondary school physic lesson and especially on teacher’s narratives. The language practices of physics are materialized in both textual products and face-to-face interactions. For the language learner, mastering both a new language and the content of the subject at the same time can be challenging. Thus, the paper seeks to answer the following research questions: 1) What does disciplinary language look like from the perspective of the multilingual learner and 2) How is disciplinary language constructed in the intersection of practices? This nexus of practice is examined from classroom observations and video recordings. This article suggests that from the point of language education and social justice, it is important to consider the intersection of mundane and disciplinary practices.
