Topple misunderstandings of geometric sequences. Using a context of creating ever-increasing sizes of dominoes, pupils develop a geometric sequence. The scenario provides the size of the first domino and the common ratio between...

As a continuation of a previous lesson, this activity builds on the concept of calculating the terms of a sequence. Pupils are challenged to determine the smallest starting term to reach a set number by a set number of rounds. Notation...

Develop a sequence of descriptions. Learners watch an introduction to sequences, their notations, and how to graph them. Pupils use full sentences to describe the sequence and how to get from one term to the next, without needing to...

Math is all about finding patterns. In this ask, scholars first investigate a sequence formed by squaring the sum of the digits in the previous term. They go on to investigate a second sequence and write an algebraic expression for this...

It is a-maze-ing how lost one can get. Teams reconstruct a simple maze and solve it. Participants create an algorithm that a robot would follow in order to solve the maze as well. The activity includes an extension directing pupils to...

Take steps into sequences. An 11-lesson unit builds upon pupils' previous understanding of writing expressions to develop the idea of sequences. The resource explores both arithmetic and geometric sequences using recursive and explicit...

Work through a sequence in discovering number patterns. Using the interactive, pupils explore arithmetic and geometric sequences by setting the initial value and the common difference or ratio. Learners distinguish between the two types...

Mastering techniques from the resource, pupils give life to their writing, revising their storyboards to include sensory details and transitions. To finish, they participate in a peer critique process and use the feedback to further...

Let's get creative! With the fun resource, pupils continue working on their graphic novelettes about an invention, adding text and images to each section. When finished, they engage in a peer critique process, giving and receiving...

What a web we weave. Pupils use yarn as the primary resource to create a web depicting the intricacies of a salt marsh ecosystem. They participate in a question and answer session, which leads to an in-depth facilitated discussion...

Fibonacci is an interesting sequence that forms some unique patterns. Learners explore sequences that do not have the typical arithmetic and geometric patterns. They identify the pattern and find the next consecutive terms....

Practicing number sequences, students solve 5 various problems that include determining various number sequences in each. First, they work out what number comes out of each of the given machines. Then, kids write down the first five...

Reinforcing the math terms, "before," "between," and "after," is the focus of this math PowerPoint. Young mathematicians must fill in the missing number in a sequence of numbers shown on each slide. This presentation should provide...

In this arithmetic and geometric sequences worksheet, 11th graders solve and complete 34 various types of problems. First, they find the described term in each sequence. Then, students complete the geometric sequences and find the value...

Join the newspaper business with a series of lessons and exercises focused on elements of journalism. The packet focuses on distinguishing fact from opinion, writing effective headlines, sequencing events, and editing and...

In this math worksheet, learners learn that a sequence is a set of numbers which follows a mathematical rule. Students look at math sequences and fill in the missing numbers and also explain in words what the pattern is. Some of the...

Designed to be used with an independent reading book, this activity provides practice with identifying and explaining literary terms. While they read, individuals find instances of literary devices and elements in use in their books....

Twenty-eight problems, two pages, and an answer key all related to number patterns, recursive formula, and arithmetic sequence. Leaners find the next number in the pattern or sequence and determine the arithmetic formula to go with the...

Explore geometric sequences with this 30 problem learning exercise. Upper graders determine if the sequences shown are geometric and find the common ratio. Then, given the explicit formula for a geometric sequence find the first five...

How do the loan principal, interest rate, and term all factor into a monthly car payment? Introduce your class to some of the key steps and considerations of obtaining a loan and purchasing a car.

Everyone knows that George Washington was the first president, but do your scholars know why that was so important? The lesson plan, the third in a sequence of three, allows learners to understand how George Washington set a precedent...

Students determine patterns. In this mathematics lesson, students act out a skit, play a sequence game, and complete patterns. Students use problems solving skills.

Bring algebra to life with scientific applications. Math minded individuals calculate and graph the time it takes a bacterium to double. They discuss geometric sequences and use a chart to graph their findings. There are 38...

In these math worksheets, students will complete 3 pages of sequencing work. The first page is Simple Sequences (17 problems). The second page is Harder Sequences (18 problems). The third page is Fibonacci Sequence work (9 problems).
