Take your class on a field trip to Fractalland where they'll learn all about number and shape patterns. Based on Disney's movie Alice in Wonderland, this resource takes young mathematicians on an adventure as they explore patterns in...

There are fundamental principles that nearly everybody knows about. Define the principles of Golden Mean, Fibonacci Numbers, creativity, and matter in terms of their Greek origins. Presented here are brief histories, philosophies, and...

In this golden rectangles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different problems that include measuring the length and width of rectangles. First, they use the chart given to calculate the rectangles that are golden rectangles....

Students examine the relationship between number sequence and poetry.  For this number algorithm lesson, students discuss Fibonacci's invention of a poetic number sequence.  Students research the history of Fibonacci's invention, and its...

Tenth graders investigate the Golden Ratio.  For this geometry lesson, 10th graders explore the Fibonacci sequence in the context of The Fibonacci Rabbit problem.  Students examine how the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci number create...

In this Fibonacci number sequence worksheet, learners problem solve the answers to six word problems involving the process of his number sequence.

Explore the building blocks of the Fibonacci Sequence. Given the lengths of sides of squares, pupils deduce the pattern to determine the lengths of two more squares. Learners continue to work with recursive formulas to generate numerical...

Excite the class with a mathematical trick, a calculator, and a good number sense. They use the directions provided on each slide to make a list of numbers, use their calculator to divide, and find the golden mean. A little history on...

How can you see a number in nature? Here, learners discover both Fibonacci numbers and the golden ratio by exploring a number of different resources.  Note: Some of the resources are older and may be missing some of the links, but the...

Students integrate the patterns of Fibonacci into music. In this geometry lesson, students apply the concepts of recursion, pattern and Phi or Golden Ratio to composing and playing music on various instruments. They lesson is co-taught...

In this math worksheet, students complete a 25 square math puzzle in which students examine the provided numbers and figure out the pattern. Students complete the puzzle according to the pattern, which in this case is the Fibonacci...

In this math activity, students complete a 25 square puzzle. Students analyze the 5 given numbers, figure out the pattern (here a Fibonacci sequence) and fill in the blanks.

Study Fibonacci sequences and see a related set of numbers. Learn and review Lucas numbers and use of quadratic equations to find a general term of a sequence of numbers that is generated by a recurrence relation similar to Fibonacci's.

Students investigate the mathematical patterns of the Fibonacci Sequence. They determine how math is connected to music, specifically looking at music the uses the pattern sequence found in the Fibonacci Sequence.

Fifth graders have the opportunity to gather information themselves on Fibonacci and on the occurrence of Fibonacci numbers in nature. They divide up into groups of 2 to 4 to research.

Students investigate the painting style of Van Gogh by creating a bulletin board with sunflowers on it. This is a creative project that is to be done at the end of a unit of study for plants. Specifically, this is done because of the...

Students use input / output tables to help them solve algebraic equations. They use patterns and relations to represent and analyze mathematical situations using algebraic symbols.
