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...

Upper graders explore the Fibonacci sequence. They examine the characteristics of the Fibonacci sequence, list the properties of the sequence and determine how it connects to Pythagorean Triples. Related thinking questions are included.

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.

Seventh grade math is so much fun! They solve 10 different problems that include using patterns to complete a table, describe the pattern, and identify the specific term in the pattern for each. Then they give a description of the...

Students investigate geometry and algebra and the history behind these two interesting subjects. In this algebra lesson, students analyze the Fibonacci Sequence and relate it to solving exponential equations. There are alot of links and...

Students identify numbers in nature. For this algebra lesson, students solve problems using Fibonacci sequence as it is expressed in nature. They research the Fibonacci's pattern as it relates to numbers.

Students solve problems using the Fibonacci Patterns. In this geometry lesson, students trackthe growing rate of a rabbit population. They collect the data and graph their results. They make predictions based on their results.

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

Ninth graders examine sequential number patterns and the Fibonacci sequence. Given number patterns, they determine the next number in a sequence. Students develop their own number patterns and exchange them with another to be solved.

Fifth graders examine how to see patterns by showing how things work together. They identify, analyze and determine a rule for predicting and extending numberical patterns involving operations of whole numbers, decimals and fractions.

Students explore arithmetic and numerical patterns. After observing a teacher created function box, students describe a pattern and predict what will "come out" of the function box. They explore patterns such as geometric shapes,...

Seventh graders identify and find missing patterns. In this algebra lesson plan, 7th graders investigate numbers and sequences and complete the pattern. They make a chart and discuss similarities and differences.

Students collect sunflower heads from their community garden. They estimate its seed count using different strategies. They graph their estimations on a graph and use calculators to find the actual total.
