Flipped Classroom Lesson Plan

Authors: Stacey Peterson, Nicole Jacobs, Riccardo Pinzon Lesson Title: Fibonacci Sequence Subject Areas: Math, Art Grade Level: 9-12 Time Needed: 60 minutes PA Academic Standards: G.1.3.1.2: Identify and/or use proportional relationships in similar figures. A2.2.1.1.1: Analyze a set of data for the existence of a pattern and represent the pattern with a rule algebraically and/or graphically. A2.2.1.1.2: Identify and/or extend a pattern as either an arithmetic or geometric sequence (e.g., given a geometric sequence, find the 20th term) M11.D.1:Demonstrate an understanding of patterns, relations and functions.

Learning Objectives: Students will be able to analyze the movie clip and apply the concepts to real life examples.

Students will be able to identify and create examples of the Fibonacci\ Sequence.

Fibonacci Sequence that Contains especific number

Surveying Students: Have a set of large index cards around the room with the points that meet the Essential Questions. Have students walk around to each card writing their name on the points they wrote on their sheet. If they do not write their name on one of the concepts, the teacher can be around to help them later. After listing the areas where students feel they need help they can take a quick quiz to see what they learned from the video.

Addressing Common Problems: Teacher will call groups of students from the cards over to a central location where those students can hold a discussion about the topics they did not understand.

Differentiation/ Individualization:

Students will work with computers to create a pattern as described in the directions listed above in the materials section. Next students will get a copy of the pictures and will analyze them for the examples of the Fibonacci sequence. Third students will take a set of toothpicks which they will use to break and manipulate into designs that contain the Fibonacci Sequence. These images will be captured on an Itouch to be passed to another student to check for the sequence. Lastly students will need to analyze another student image for the sequence.

Assessment Pictures and answers will be given to teacher to check for understanding.
