I can draw the next two patterns in a simple sequence 9 7-8 5-6 3-4 1-2 Year 7- Sequences I can draw the next two patterns in a simple sequence I can work out the next two terms (numbers) in a sequence I can find a term to term rule for a linear sequence. I can describe a sequence in words. I can find the position to term rule for a linear sequence and explain how I worked it out. I can generate a sequence from a position to term rule. I can use a position to term rule to find any term in a sequence and also to decide whether a number is part of a sequence. I understand the difference between a linear sequence and a quadratic sequence. These slides are printed as an A5 booklet.

What are the next two terms (numbers) in these sequences? I can draw the next two patterns in a simple sequence I can work out the next two terms (numbers) in a sequence Fluency What are the next two terms (numbers) in these sequences? 4, 7, 10, 13, ... , … , 30, 25, 20, 15, ... , … , Problem Solving Draw the next pattern in this sequence Reasoning Sequence 1) 4, 7, 10, 13, ... Sequence 2) 13, 10, 7, 4, … What is the same about these two sequences? What is different about these two sequences.

I can find a term to term rule for a linear sequence. I can describe a sequence in words. Fluency Describe this sequence in words, so that I would be able to write down the first five terms without seeing it ….. 7, 11, 15, 19 Problem Solving Write down the first five terms of this sequence… Start at 40 and subtract 4 Reasoning True or False, the term to term rule for the sequence below is add 3? 3, 7, 11, 15… You must explain your answer.

I can find the position to term rule for a linear sequence and explain how I worked it out. I can generate a sequence from a position to term rule. Fluency Write down the first 5 terms (numbers) in this sequence 5n 1st term, 2nd term, 3rd term 4th term 5th term Problem Solving What is the position to term rule (nth term rule) for this sequence? 7, 12, 17, 22, 27 Explain how you worked it out. Reasoning What is the same and what is different about the sequences with these nth term rules. 2n 2n + 4 They are the same because……………………………….. They are the different because…………………………..

I can find the position to term rule for a linear sequence and explain how I worked it out. I can generate a sequence from a position to term rule. Fluency What is the position to term rule (nth term rule) for this sequence? 20, 17, 14, 11, 8 Problem Solving What would the 20th term in this sequence be? 7n + 4 Explain how you worked it out. Reasoning Here are the first five terms of a number sequence. 3, 8, 13, 18, 23 Explain why 37 is not a term in this sequence.

I understand the difference between a linear sequence and a quadratic sequence. Fluency What is the 10th term in this sequence 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 Problem Solving The nth term of a sequence is 2n2 + 1 Write down the first 5 terms in the sequence. Reasoning How is a quadratic sequence different from a linear sequence?
