Infinite Geometric Series-Group Activity or Independent Practice 4 Forms (60 pr)

This is an engaging and collaborative group activity on infinite geometric series.

It contains a total of 60 problems and consists of 7 sections. In each section each member of a group has his own problem(s) to solve as the problems of the partners are similar.

In the 1st section partners have to write given series in summation notation.

In the 2th section each partner has given three series (two of them are in summation notation) and is asked to find the sum of each.
3th section: Students have to find the common ration of the infinite geometric series with the given sum and first term.
4th section: Students have to find the first term of the infinite geometric series with the given sum and common ratio.
5th section: Each member of a group is given four series (in summation notation) and has to determine which of them converge and to give the value of each convergent series.
6th section: Students have to convert repeating decimals to fractional form.
7th section: Students are given geometry problems to solve by use of a geometric series.

This activity may turn into competition between groups.

The product can be also used as four different forms of independent practice, extra practice, enrichment and homework assignment.

Student recording sheet and answer keys are included.
