Learning Goal:

I can write and solve problems involving sequences and series. I can also use the counting principle to determine the possible solutions in a given scenario.

Estimated Time for The Week: 2 hours

Learn & Practice:

• Watch the instructional video over Arithmetic Sequences. Take notes as you watch the video to help you solidify your knowledge. Then try this practice page to see if you are comfortable with these types of problems. Here are some typed out notes for your reference: Arithmetic Sequences notes
• Think for a minute about adding a sequence of numbers together. For instance, before you watch the next video...What is the sum of 1-100? Spend 5 minutes and think about the answer, try and come up with multiple ways you could figure this out. Then when you think you have an answer, watch this Arithmetic Series video, taking notes as you watch the video.
• Now, using what you learned in the video above, find the answers to this color by number page. Once you have it colored, share your picture with a classmate and compare your answers/colors! (You can share it with your teacher too! We would love to see what you have done!) If you don’t have the ability to print the paper, you can use KAMI to draw directly on the paper.
• View this video on Geometric Sequences to see the differences between adding the same number every time and multiplying by the same value each time. Then try these practice problems and check your answers to see how you did! Here are some typed out notes for your reference: Geometric Sequences notes
• Earlier we learned about Arithmetic Series, we also want to so let’s learn about Geometric Series. Check out this video on Geometric Series. Then go to joinmyquiz.com and enter the code: 075059 to practice. Good luck!
