![]() ![]() Male bees have only one parent, a mother (female). Progress to Slide Two which shows the growing family tree of a male bee. How many branches will the tree have after next spring?Ĭlick on the mouse to reveal that the tree has 21 branches next spring.ĭo students notice that each new branch does not sprout another branch until its second spring?ĭo they notice that each new number of branches is the sum of the two springs before it? Watch carefully how the tree grows new branches each spring. After the first sequence, show the tree growing until it has 13 branches. Show the students Slide One of PowerPoint One. In this lesson we explore how to generate the Fibonacci sequence. Te reo Māori kupu such as raupapa (sequence) and ture (rule, formula) could be introduced in this unit and used throughout other mathematical learning. Students might investigate Fibonacci in real life situations and apply the sequence to a situation in their life. Investigate related situations that are of interest to your students, such as Fibonacci in human proportion, in spirals (fern fronds), in nautilus shells, and in the construction of famous buildings. The Fibonacci sequence is found in a variety of natural and human-made phenomena, which is reflected throughout this unit. The contexts for this unit are, and can be, varied. directly and explicitly instructing students on key foundational concepts, such as square numbers, consecutive numbers, the golden ratio.providing opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning, and scaffold the learning of others, through the creation and sharing of presentations that reflect their understanding (e.g.This will allow them to benefit from the sharing and justification of ideas, collaboration (mahi tahi) and peer learning (tuakana teina) providing opportunities for students to work in mixed groupings, pairs, as individuals, and with the whole class.using calculators to ease the cognitive load associated with making calculations with larger whole numbers, so students can focus more on pattern and less on finding answers. ![]()
