In this session, the children began their exploration of number sequences, learning how patterns of numbers can follow predictable rules. They were introduced to two different methods for describing and continuing a sequence.
The first method involved equal jumps between each term. The children discovered that in some sequences, the same amount is added or subtracted each time. For example, in the sequence 3, 7, 11, 15, the jump is always 4, so each term is found by adding 4 to the one before.
The second method involved terms that are multiplied or divided by a constant integer. Here, the children learnt that each term is found by multiplying or dividing the previous term by the same whole number. For instance, 2, 6, 18, 54 multiplies by 3 each time, while 80, 40, 20, 10 divides by 2 each time.
Throughout the session, the children practised identifying the rule and using it to find missing numbers. They showed confidence in explaining their reasoning, building a strong foundation for future sequence work.
