Based on the famous Fibonacci sequence, this activity helps students develop numbers sense as they work with addition and subtraction. Decimals and integers are easily incorporated, and estimation skills are honed. Proportional reasoning is a natural application of this activity. Problem-solving strategies can be taught, and students can even use algebra as a tool. Much of the work is self-correcting, too! Complete handout available.
I have been in education for 37 years, and in math, science, and STEM instruction for 26. I have been presenting at national workshops and conferences since 1994.
