*Looks around expectantly to see if anyone claps or cheers*
*Nothing Happens*
Aww...
A load of Year 6 students in a classroom. A bald teacher talks to them. The students get on with their task.
A boy and I take it in turns to write a short sequence of numbers on a mini whiteboard. Then the person not writing then writes more figures that correlate with the pattern.
He writes, 200, -200, 200, -200, 200, -200...
I write, ...200, -200, 200, -200, 200, -200...
Later on in the lesson, we cover the nth term.
Ever since then, I have thought back to that sequence, wondering whether there was a way to express the general pattern of the sequence. But not enough to use Google.
And today, I found it at long last.
Now are you happy?
