Exponential Growth: Exponential, Fractal Snowflakes
Examine an exponential growth model. Using a fractal, learners calculate the perimeters of each stage. When comparing the consecutive perimeters, a pattern emerges. They use the pattern to build an equation and make conclusions.
Curated OER
A Matter of Pattern
Students will create and predict patterns formed when making paper snowflakes. Students will construct snowflakes understanding that patterns may be predicted based on observation.
Curated OER
Koch Snowflake
Students investigate Koch's Snowflake. In this geometry lesson, students identify the properties of creating Koch's snowflake. They solve problems dealing with fractals and patterns.
Curated OER
Fractals: Koch Snowflake
Students investigate the properties of Koch's snowflake. In this geometry lesson, students investigate fractals and patterns. They create Koch's snowflake using Cabri software.
Curated OER
Make A Crystal Snowflake!
Students make a crystal snowflake decoration out of string, pipe cleaners, food coloring, boiling water, and more. In this snowflake lesson plan, students let it dry over night and see crystals in the morning.
Curated OER
The Dragon Curve Fractal
Students identify the properties of a dragon curve. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify sequences and patterns as they solve fractals. They investigate patterns found in nature.
Curated OER
Sampling Rocks
Here is a geology lesson which invites learners to explore a variety of rocks. They find rocks in the schoolyard and classify them according to size, color, and weight, then read the book Everybody Needs a Rock. Good lesson!
Curated OER
Fractal and the Dragon Curve
Students explore Fractal designs. In this geometry lesson, students observe the different polygons created in nature and relate it to math. They define polygons on planes and rotate polygons about a point.
Curated OER
Fractals Rock
Students identify the repeated sequences of a pattern. In this geometry lesson, students identify fractals in patterns and nature. They construct a fractal tree and make conjectures.
Curated OER
Fractals Rock: Investing the Fractal Tree
Learners investigate the relationship between fractals and sequences. In this geometry lesson, students build a fractal tree. They investigate different career fields where fractals are used in the real world.
Curated OER
Great Lakes Snow Analysis Collaborative Network
Students interpret data on snow cover and analyze trend patterns. In this snow lesson students compare data and locate their school's GPS coordinates.
Curated OER
Geometry History Lesson
Tenth graders investigate the early history of geometry. In this geometry lesson, 10th graders investigate translations, rotations, and reflections. They also solve problems with line of symmetry and rotational symmetry while reviewing...
Curated OER
The Fractal Geometry of Nature
Students identify patterns found in nature. In this algebra lesson plan, students model situation in nature using fractals. They investigate biological geometric structures and draw conclusion based on geometric concepts.
