Recently, Legoboy participated in a class at the local-ish museum called "Geometry in Nature". Not a homeschool thing - this was on a Saturday so any children could come.
I had this awesome post up - almost ready to go - went to edit just a TINY bit - and the whole thing was lost. That has never happened before and I was NOT happy. So 5 months later, here is what I was able to salvage. I didn't feel like (and still don't feel like) re-doing it all :(
They mostly focused on Fibonacci and on fractals.
The whole day led to lots of follow-up work and discussions.
Alleged fractals in painting:
Which calls to mind our awesome hallways: Elsa's Frozen palace!!!
Waiting for the other kids to arrive - he was the only one there ON TIME. Hm.

Later we enjoyed this website:
Fibonacci Numbers and Nature
Google these phrases!!!!
- swirl in pinecone
- swirl in pineapple
- Fibonacci sequence image
