This worksheet is for use with the Mandelbrot Set activity (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/activities/TheMandelbrotSet/).
Recursion (Discussion)
Discusses the idea of recursion as it pertains to fractals and sequences.
Multi-Step Functions (Discussion)
Discusses the notion of composite functions as several "number machines" with the output of one machine becoming the input of another.
Infinity and Iteration (Discussion)
Discusses infinity, iterations and limits by referencing fractals and sequences.
Outlines the approach to building fractals by cutting out portions of plane figures.
Fire Assessment (Activity)
Learn about estimation through modeling of a forest fire. This activity allows the user to burn a virtual forest, then estimate the number, the percent, or the fraction of trees burned. Fire Assessment is one of the Interactivate assessment explorers.
This worksheet is for use with the Patterns in Fractals lesson plan (http://www.shodor.org/interactivate/lessons/PatternsInFractals/).
Demonstrates how fractions are added and subtracted.
Shows how modular arithmetic can be thought of as clock arithmetic.
Introduces students to the idea of finding number patterns in the generation of several different types of fractals.
