I have been told by seasoned educators not to "re-invent the wheel" when coming up with ideas for lessons. So true!! Lesson Planet has a wealth of sources and ideas from some of the greatest teaching minds that are out there...what a blessing to have a resource such as Lesson Planet, to turn to. I am even planning to contribute a lesson or two myself. My daughter is in a teacher education program and I have introduced her to the "Planet". We're spreading the news!

Fibonacci Sequences Lesson Plans
Find teacher approved Fibonacci Sequences lesson plan ideas and activities
In this lesson students identify and analyze the pattern of the Fibonacci Sequence. In this geometry lesson, students complete a project to supplement the lecture on patterns and how it is related to the real world. They use the numbers found in the Fibonacci Sequence.
In this lesson 6th graders use the Internet to discover the Golden Ratio and how it corresponds with the Fibonacci Sequence. They use Microsoft Word to create a table that showcases their observations.
Learners 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.
In this lesson students explore Fibonacci sequences. In this math lesson, students identify the relationship between two numbers. In this lesson students use Fibonacci sequences to create algebraic equations.
This lesson has learners discuss the Fibonacci sequence and how it was discovered by trying to determine the sequence on their own based on the same assumptions Leonardo Fibonacci used. Working as a class they discuss the rule that is being follow to get from one number to the next before dividing into groups to look for Fibonacci numbers in pictures of nature.
This lesson has students become familiar with patterns, the Fibonacci Sequence, and the Golden Ratio. They see how many places these occur. They have practical applications for using the calculator and making charts to extend patterns.
Learners investigate the Golden Ratio. In this geometry lesson, learners explore the Fibonacci sequence in the context of The Fibonacci Rabbit problem. Learners examine how the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci number create the golden Ratio and identify real-life example s of the Golden ratio.
Students encounter the skills of Fibonacci sequence. They realize that nature loves patterns! A pattern being a shape that is repeated. In science and nature that is called a Fibonacci sequence. It's the one special mathematical pattern that is seen to occur in hundreds of places in nature--pine cones, seashells, etc. and even reproductive patterns.
Students draw a model of the bunny problem which generates the Fibonacci Sequence, spirals generated from golden rectangles and golden triangles; identify the golden ratio in the human body, and find the Fibonacci numbers in nature.
In this lesson students find Fibonacci sequences. In this applied Science lesson, students solve Fibonacci sequence problems. In this lesson students explore the mathematical patterns of objects in nature.
