Math Patterns in Nature - Fibonacci and His Famous Sequence

This is a high level introduction to the Fibonacci sequence. Students will learn about the Italian mathematician Fibonacci. They will learn why he is remembered and uncover the sequence he discovered. Students will then learn how this sequence is repeated throughout nature by drawing the sequence and sharing items they have brought to class. Students will discuss their ideas, observations and opinions. If time students will create their own sequence and solve others and test their knowledge of what they have learned through a quiz game. This class utilizes Nearpod for a more interactive experience.
