Check out a wide variety of free printable activities for teaching sequences and series as well as other teaching series for this important algebra topic.
Classifying Sequences
Arithmetic Geometric or Neither Color Coding Activity
My Algebra students completed this arithmetic geometric or neither color coding activity after we created our arithmetic, geometric, or neither foldable in our interactive notebooks.
Classifying Sequences Activity – Arithmetic, Geometric, or Neither?
I created this classifying sequences activity to give my algebra students practice distinguishing between geometric and arithmetic sequences. I also threw in some other sequences which we classified as neither.
Types of Sequences Graphic Organizer Template
Create a summary for students to reference in their notebooks of the different types of sequences: arithmetic, geometric, and neither.
Arithmetic Sequences
Step Puzzles for Practicing Arithmetic Sequences
Each line in the picture represents a different arithmetic sequence. Can you fill in the blank circles?
These creative puzzles are the creation of Naoki Inaba, a prolific Japanese puzzle creator.
Arithmetic Sequence Puzzle

This arithmetic series foldable gives an overview of the meaning of each part of the formula for finding the sum of the first n terms in an arithmetic sequence.
Geometric Series
Geometric Series Formula Foldable
This geometric series foldable gives an overview of the meaning of each part of the formula for finding the sum of the first n terms in a geometric sequence.
Activity Solutions
Activity and worksheet solutions are available on a password-protected solution page. I do not openly post the answer keys because one of my goals as a resource creator is to craft learning experiences for students that are non-google-able. I want teachers to be able to use these activities and resources in their classrooms without the solutions being found easily on the Internet.
Please email me at sarah@mathequalslove.net for the password to the answer key database featuring all of my printable puzzles and math worksheets. I frequently have students emailing me for the answer key, so please specify in your email what school you teach at and what subjects you teach. If you do not provide these details, I will not be able to send you the password.
