Art Fractals
This lesson is based on the Fibonacci sequence. Overlapping concepts of pattern, repetition, structure, scale, proportions are considerations for constructing an artistic, math-based sculpture.
Objectives:
Engineer a successful structure that repeats a sequence present in the natural world (or geometry or algebra).
Calculate the correct proportional increase of the pattern.
Evaluate and select effective materials for a purpose.
Demonstrate artistic and technical skills when problem solving.
Present the project to your audience.

Students will study car barrier engineering in this lesson. They will study how Newton’s Second Law of motion can be applied to determine how to decrease the force of impact during a collision. They
Students will read the novel, "The Lion of Mars", design & launch paper rockets, and then design a sustainable Mars Colony inspired by the novel. This hands-on lesson is scheduled to take around 15
