The Golden Ratio, often called Phi or the Golden Mean, is a number with fascinating mathematical properties that make it unique. Found in the DNA of all living organisms and even in the movements of the stock market, this ratio has been used for centuries by artists, designers, and architects to create beauty. But it’s not just a number—it’s part of the very fabric of life.
The Fibonacci Sequence, closely tied to the Golden Ratio, is a number sequence found throughout nature, especially in plants. In this session, we'll explore the connections between these beautiful numbers and their presence in the world around us.
In this session, your child will:
-
Discover the Golden Ratio: Understand its unique properties and its appearances in nature, architecture, and art.
-
Explore the Fibonacci Sequence: See how this sequence forms spirals and patterns in plants and other living organisms.
-
Create Your Own Fibonacci Spiral: Draw a mathematically accurate spiral and see how the sequence unfolds in real life.
-
Linking Math to Nature: Discuss how the Golden Ratio and Fibonacci Sequence help explain the beauty and patterns we see in the world.
This session is ideal for kids who are curious about nature, art, and the surprising ways math shapes the world around us!
