Students identify and investigate Fibonacci numbers and the ratios of successive Fibonacci numbers. They take measurements of two different heights and investigate the relationship of these two heights (a person's height and the height of that person's navel). Finally, students examine a graph (scatterplot) of these two measurements. Full Review »
