Sierpinski's Carpet (Activity)
Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Carpet -- a fractal made from subdividing a square into nine smaller squares and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.
Estimation (Lesson)
Students practice and improve upon their estimation skills.
This worksheet is for use with the Estimator Four activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/EstimatorFour/).
This worksheet is for use with the activity Fire Assessment (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/FireAssessment/).
Demonstrates how fractions are added and subtracted.
Place Value (Discussion)
Discusses what individual digits represent in multi-digit integers.
Recursion (Discussion)
Discusses the idea of recursion as it pertains to fractals and sequences.
Step through the generation of Sierpinski's Triangle -- a fractal made from subdividing a triangle into four smaller triangles and cutting the middle one out. Explore number patterns in sequences and geometric properties of fractals.
Introduces students to making estimations.
Outlines the approach to playing the chaos game and how it relates to geometric fractals.
