Spirals are very cool. They always draw me inside them and tickle my vision.
ReplyDeleteAnd Fibonacci had some interesting things to say about them, too!
Hi, Tabatha! I'm teaching fibonacci poems with third graders again this spring. They had a great time combining science, math and poetry last year. In addition to Joyce Sidman's new book "Swirl by Swirl," I love "Growing Patterns" by Sarah C. Campbell.
ReplyDeleteLaura took both of the titles I was going to mention! [See? She's beating me all around this week... ;0) ] Thanks so much for sharing these wonderful images. I never tire at looking at spirals.
ReplyDeleteI meant, "tire of" looking at spirals. I'm pretty "tired at" at this moment...
