Golden Fibonacci and Ratios

Students investigate ratios and percents and convert between the two. In this algebra activity, students write ratios using fractions. They write percents as fractions and decimals and they apply the concepts of the Fibonacci rectangle...

Lead your class on a search for precious bones. Using a presentation, the class investigates the golden ratio in art and nature. Groups of pupils measure specific bones and find the average ratio for the class. To further cement the...

In this golden rectangles worksheet, 10th graders solve and complete 6 different problems that include measuring the length and width of rectangles. First, they use the chart given to calculate the rectangles that are golden rectangles....

Learners study the golden ratio approach using rectangles and a pentagram and make connections about proportional relationships. In this ratio relationships lesson plan, students describe ratio relationships as decimals and make...

Excite the class with a mathematical trick, a calculator, and a good number sense. They use the directions provided on each slide to make a list of numbers, use their calculator to divide, and find the golden mean. A little history on...

Math is beautiful, as is poetry. Young poets investigate the Fibonacci sequence and produce the first few values of the sequence. They then write poems using the sequence values as the number of syllables for each line.

Fe, phi, fo, fum. This activity leads pairs to find the ratio of consecutive terms of the Fibonacci sequence. The pairs find that the Fibonacci sequence can be found in many places. A discussion with the class shows that the ratios found...

What better way to introduce the idea of a sequence than with robots! An educational lesson explains the classic Fibonacci sequence before pupils build and program a robot to move. Additionally, the lesson challenges individuals to...

The context of rabbit populations introduces the Fibonacci sequence. Scholars then calculate ratios and see how they converge to the golden ratio. They also explore some instances of the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio in nature.

Take your class on a field trip to Fractalland where they'll learn all about number and shape patterns. Based on Disney's movie Alice in Wonderland, this resource takes young mathematicians on an adventure as they explore patterns in...
