I. Objectives:
At the end of the learning period, the students are expected to perform the following:
a. find patterns;
b. identify the next few terms of the given set of numbers;
c. define a sequence;
d. state the difference between finite and infinite sequences;
e. solve problem involving sequence; and
f. exhibit cooperation with co-members during activities.

III. Procedures
-May I request everyone to stand and put our (students will stand)
self in the presence of God. Let us pray.
-Kindly arrange your chairs, pick up those (students will arrange the chairs and pick
trashes under your chair, remove unnecessary up trashes)
things on top of your chairs and sit properly.

B. Motivation
- I want you to look for a partner.
- Is everyone has a partner?
C. Presentation
- How did you identify the next terms in - We had identified the next terms by
each of the given set of numbers? following a pattern or rule.
- Very Good!
- What is the rule or pattern for the first - 1. Set of counting numbers
one? Second, third and etc. 2. Set of even numbers
- Very good! 3. set of square numbers
- The given sets of numbers above are 4. multiplying by 2 to the preceding
examples of sequences. term
- This morning/afternoon, we are going to 5. set of cube numbers
discuss about sequence.
- So, what is the difference between a finite - A finite sequence has a first term
and infinite sequence? and a last term while an infinite
sequence has a first term but no last
term.

- Previously you are given the terms and
you need to find the rule or pattern.
- Now we will do the reverse given the
pattern or rule you need to give the terms.
- Given a sequence, we need to identify its
pattern or rule. Now, we are going to find
the terms of the sequence following a rule.
- Consider the rule y= 2x+1, identify the - y= 2x+1
first four terms of the sequence. x=1
- To identify the terms of the sequence we y= 2(1)+1=3
will just simply substitute x by the set of x=2
natural numbers. y=2(2) +1=5
- Who can try to solve it on the board? x=3
y=2(3)+1=7
x=4
- Very Good! y=2(4)+1=9
- What are the first four terms of the
sequence following the rule y=2x+1? - {3,5,7,9}
E. Generalization
- Based on our discussion, what is a - A sequence is the set of numbers
sequence? written in a special order by the
application of a definite rule.
F. Application
- By group (joining of 3 pairs)
- Each group will be given a manila paper
to write their answers.
- You are given 5 minutes to do the group
activity. Then post your work on the board
and we will discuss the answers.
IV. Evaluation
On a one -half sheet of paper, write the first four terms of the sequence with the given rule. Show
solutions completely. Note: Use set of natural/counting numbers for your values of x.
1. y= 3x+5
2. y= 2x2
V. Assignment
On a one whole sheet of paper, write the first four terms of the sequence with the given rule. Show
solutions completely. Note: Use set of natural/counting numbers for your values of x.
1. y= 3x
2. y= x2-9
3. y= x3-1
4. y= 5x+3
5. y= x2-3x+2
