3 hours Year 9 Support Autumn Term Unit 2 Sequences, functions and graphs NNS P144-157

Autumn Term

Spring Term Summer Term

Support (from Y7 teaching programme)
• Generate terms of a simple sequence given a rule
• Generate sequences from practical contexts and describe the general term in simple cases

Core (from Y8 teaching programme)
• Generate and describe integer sequences
• Generate terms of a linear sequence using
term-to-term and position-to-term definitions of the sequence, on paper and using a spreadsheet or graphical calculator
• Begin to use linear expressions to describe the nth term of an arithmetic sequence, justifying its form by referring to the activity or practical context from which it was generated

Extension (from Y9 teaching programme)
• Generate sequences from practical contexts and write an expression to describe the n th term of an arithmetic sequence.
