In this study, we tried to teach of the literal expressions and function for junior high school using "Excel"effectively. Previous studies have already shown that it is difficult for students to get the concept of algebraic letters. And the learning of function is mainly to take up unrealistic integral function, and to use table, expression and graph by turns. A lot of studies have been made on these problems. For example, the learning of algebraic letters placed emphasis on educational meaning of algebraic letters, and it was effective to do the various educational practices using program calculator from the I98 0s downward. In the environment which surrounds a child changes completely, I verified that it is possible to develop into previous studies by educational practices using "Excel", and how students'cognition changed. As a result of the educational practice, I recognized that it was feasible to grow the cognition of function using "Excel".
