Curated OER
Arithmetic Sequences
Find the sequence of an equation with your math super stars. They differentiate between arithmetic and geometric sequences and then calculate the sum of finite and infinite sequences.

The Fractal Geometry of Nature
Students identify patterns found in nature. In this algebra lesson, students model situation in nature using fractals. They investigate biological geometric structures and draw conclusion based on geometric concepts.

Fractals Rock: Investing the Fractal Tree
Learners investigate the relationship between fractals and sequences. In this geometry instructional activity, students build a fractal tree. They investigate different career fields where fractals are used in the real world.

Area Under A Curve
Calculus young scholars use the derivative and integral to solve problems involving areas. They calculate the area under a curve as they follow a robot off road making different curves along the drive, using Riemann Sums and...

Extending Pattern Understandings
Students use shapes and manipulatives to demonstrate patterns. In this patterns lesson plan, students also break up patterns to identify a pattern unit.
Curated OER
Patterns Here, There, and Everywhere!
Upper graders access the Microsoft Word program and create patterns by utilizing certain keys on the keyboard. They create picket fences, smiley faces, and hearts. It seems that this lesson has as much to do with keyboarding skills as it...

Teaching and Learning Through Objects
Students identify and interpret the function, usefulness or utitlity, form, beauty or aesthetics, and meaning, context or story, of objects and how they learn new skills and make things that they learn traditionally, by observation and...
Curated OER
Getting Familiar with Fractals
Students use the Internet to answer lab questions about fractals, and then construct fractals using the initial stage and iteration rule. They complete tables and generate rules for the "nth" term and create their own fractals.
