Explicit Formula for Arithmetic Sequences Scavenger Hunt (Digital & Print)

Help your students develop their understanding of writing explicit formulas for arithmetic sequences with this fun, engaging digital activity. Students writing explicit formulas from sequences with given first term. Students write sequences in which the first term is not given, and students need to find the first term, then write arithmetic sequence.
 
Students start by clicking any equation on slide 1. Students record the color and solve. Students return to the home screen, look for the answer/equation in a black box, and click on it. This will take them to a new problem in which students will repeat the process. If students do not see their previous answer on slide 1, encourage them to go back and check their work! Easily assign to Google Classroom by making a copy for each student. Great for whole-class instruction, small group work, and/or re-teaching.
