14 questions

Launch, Explore, Discuss

Model a sequence of figures using tables, graphs, and equations.
  • How can I label the diagram to show how I see the pattern?
  • How can I use mathematical representations to show how I see the pattern changing?
Today's Learning Goal:
  • Use diagrams, tables, graphs, and equations to introduce geometric sequences as functions with a constant growth factor or ratio between terms.
Today's Materials:
  1. Laptop
  2. Pencil
  3. Guided Note Sheet
Please complete the Jump Start (activator). You have 5 minutes before we review. This is independent it should be silent.
