Develop a sequence of descriptions. Learners watch an introduction to sequences, their notations, and how to graph them. Pupils use full sentences to describe the sequence and how to get from one term to the next, without needing to write an expression for the sequence. Scholars practice describing and graphing sequences with the problems in the worksheet.
