Fibonacci numbers are not only found in the classroom but also in nature. Explore the concept of Fibonacci numbers through a series of lessons designed to gain insight into the mathematical reasoning behind the number pattern, and spark...

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...

Young geometers and biologists investigate the math of nature in an activity that is just the bee's knees. Participants will study the tessellations of hexagons in a beehive, along with the natural rationale behind the specific shape....

Looks at how spirals form in nature when cells reproduce in a flower, for example. An interactive lets students try entering different values to see if they can make a spiral pattern with no gaps. The correct figure would be the Golden...

In addition to arithmetic and geometric sequences, Fibonacci Numbers, and figurate numbers, there are countless interesting sequences that don't follow a similar, regular pattern. These include prime numbers, perfect numbers, the...
