"My Algebra students were struggling to understand sequences and this resource was amazing! They practiced and used the graphic organizer often. I even made extra copies and gave them a pop quiz to see how much they remembered. "

"Used in a tutoring session for an 8th grade Algebra student. It was a great resource to organize all the information in one place and compare the different forms/options. "

Description
The algebraic notation for these topics can be quite intimidating at first glance.
To help students understand how recursive formulas work, give them some think-time to complete the included informal introduction here. Once students understand how arithmetic and geometric sequences "behave", introduce the algebraic notation to formalize the patterns.
Also included here is a graphic organizer including explicit and recursive formulas for arithmetic and geometric sequences.
I hope these resources supplement your students' studies of sequences! Sample keys are included for your convenience.

I love this!
Used in a tutoring session for an 8th grade Algebra student. It was a great resource to organize all the information in one place and compare the different forms/options.
Thank you for this resource! My students were engaged and enjoyed the lesson.
I was able to use this resource as a review of explicit and recursive formulas and allow the students to make the connection with the next=now + common difference or next = now * common ratio. It was extremely helpful!
Avid strategies - strong clear notes - scaffolded for students - very. clear and concise!!
Easy to use - Great for children to anchor thinking - THANKS
Great resource! Thanks!
Great work
Thanks
