Arithmetic Sequence Lesson Plan
Arithmetic Sequence Lesson Plan
I. Objectives
Performance Standard: The learner should be able to formulate and solve problems
involving sequences, polynomials, and polynomial equations in different disciplines
through appropriate and accurate representations.
Learning Competencies/Objectives:
At the end of the lesson, the students should be able to:
1. determine the next term of an arithmetic sequence
2. solve problems involving arithmetic sequence
3. relate arithmetic sequence in real life situations
II. Content
Topic: Arithmetic Sequence
IV. Procedures
A. Review/Recall/Motivation/Connecting to Prior Knowledge
Prayer
5 – minute 5 – item Drill
1. It is a list of elements that follow a special rule or pattern.
2. What is the sum of the first 5 terms of the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9, …?
3. It is the sum of all the terms of a sequence.
4. What is the 8th term of the sequence 5, 8, 11, 14, …
5. A sequence whose next term is obtained by multiplying a common number by the
previous term.
Example 2: Find A7 of the arithmetic sequence whose first term is 19 and the
common difference is 3.
(Students are expected to share their solution and answers)
Example 3: Find A10 of the geometric sequence whose first term is 12 and 3rd
term is 32.
(Students are expected to share their solution and answers)
(The teacher and the students will derive the formula for the nth term of an
arithmetic sequence)
E. Developing Mastery
Problems will be presented.
1. What is the 8th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 1st term is 8 and common
difference is 7?
2. What is the 15th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 1st and 2nd terms are 18 and
15 respectively?
3. What is the 20th term of an arithmetic sequence whose first term and common
difference are 9 and – 5 respectively?
H. Generalization/Abstraction
Students are expected to answer the following questions.
1. Find the 11th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 1st term is 9 and common difference is 5.
2. Find the 8th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 2nd term is 16 and common difference is -8.
3. Find the common difference of an arithmetic sequence whose 5th and 6th terms are 31 and 19
respectively.
4. Find the 4th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 7th and 8th terms are 17 and 30 respectively.
5. Find the 12th term of an arithmetic sequence whose 1st and 2nd terms are 25 and 49
respectively.
Students will answer the exercises from the Learning Activity Sheet.
