cool activities for bug boxes #2 click here download this lesson in PDF This nature walk is about Fibonacci. He discovered a number pattern that is famous in the math world because it is also found in nature. You've seen it everywhere. Like: Petals on flowers, seed heads, pine cones, leaf arrangements, leaves per turn, vegetables and fruit, like pineapple, snail shells and most famously- the Nautilus shell. The pattern is that when you add any two consecutive numbers you get the next number in the sequence. Here's the number pattern: 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34....... When you add 2 and 3 you get the next number in the sequence, 5. So, go looking for Fibonacci. Either draw or photograph what you find and make a Fibonacci lap book or scrap book or anthology or work of art.
