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:
Laptop
Pencil
