Definition: A number of things that follow on one after the other or are connected one after the other.
Alright class, settle down and letβs take a look!
Youβve got a really good start with your definition from the dictionary β βA number of things that follow on one after the other or are connected one after the other.β That's perfectly clear.
Now, let's break it down in a way that makes it stick. The word "series" means something like a
chain
or a
sequence
. Think about it this way:
Imagine youβre collecting stamps β each stamp is part of a
series
, right? Maybe itβs a series of countries, or a series dedicated to animals. They're all connected and come in order!
Or consider a movie
series
like βHarry Potter.β Each book (and each film!) follows on from the last, building a story that keeps going β a continuous flow!
It could also be a
mathematical series
, where numbers or terms are added together one after another.
So, in short, 'series' means a connected group of things that happen or exist in a particular order.
Do you have any questions about that? Donβt hesitate to ask! Let's see if we can find some examples of series from your own lives β like a season of TV shows, or even a playlist on music streaming!
