Sequences Workbook: Term-to-Term, nth Term, Square, Triangular & Cube Numbers – AQA UAS 113720

A complete, differentiated sequences workbook for learners working towards AQA Unit Award Scheme (UAS) unit 113720, Algebra: Sequences, Level One. It covers all three outcomes (generating sequences, special number sequences and finding the nth term) with two pieces of evidence for each. The comparison-table method makes the nth term accessible to learners who find it abstract.

WHAT’S INCLUDED (29-page PDF)

• Teacher guide: lesson structure, suggested timing (4–5 lessons), materials list, calculator guidance, notes on the maths, SEN and inclusion ideas, common mistakes, and notes for international schools
• Learner self-assessment (5 “I can…” targets, ticked before and after)
• Key Words reference page (12 terms)
• 3 Learn sections with jump arrows, matchstick patterns, dot and cube diagrams, and a step-by-step nth term table
• Worked examples at three levels, plus a guided “We do” task for each outcome
• Practice for every outcome at three levels: Starting Out, Building Up and Challenge Myself
• 3 self-checking games: Missing Term Code, Number Sort (Venn diagram) and nth Term Match
• End of Unit Check: 9 questions, 13 marks, each tagged to an outcome
• Outcomes checklist with evidence page references and a support-given record
• Coverage map showing where every outcome is taught, practised and checked
• Certificate of completion
• Full answer key

SKILLS COVERED
Outcome 1 – Generating sequences: term-to-term rules (adding, subtracting, multiplying, two-step and Fibonacci-type), position-to-term rules including large positions, and sequences from patterns and real contexts
Outcome 2 – Special sequences: square, triangular and cube numbers (listing, recognising and reasoning), and arithmetic sequences (spotting, finding the common difference and continuing)
Outcome 3 – The nth term: finding the nth term of increasing, decreasing, negative and decimal linear sequences, using it for large positions, and testing whether a number is in a sequence

Also available in the series: Algebra Unit 1 (UAS 113715), Algebra Unit 2 (UAS 113717), Algebra: Graphs (UAS 113718) and Algebra: Solving Equations (UAS 113719).
