Just a short post today where I thought I would share a resource that I found almost a year ago and have used with multiple classes since. This resource works as a starter, main activity or plenary depending on the class and where in a sequence you want to do it.
This resource is from William Emeny (@Maths_Master) and was posted on his excellent Great Maths Teaching Ideas website. It is a card sort of famous number sequences as shown below
The high resolution pdf version can be found on his site here. I think it is great how for each sequence you are matching the name, a pictorial representation, a way to produce the sequence, a fact about the sequence and the first few terms of the sequence. There are six sequences contained in this card sort
- Even numbers
- Odd numbers
- Square numbers
- Fibonacci numbers
- Cube numbers
- Triangle numbers
Thanks again for sharing it!
