What is the Fibonacci Sequence?


The Fibonacci Sequence is one of the most famous number patterns in the world. It is a special number pattern where each number is the sum of the two before it, and it goes like this:

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21...

Can you see the pattern? Each number is made by adding the two numbers before it!

• 0 + 1 = 1

• 1 + 1 = 2

• 1 + 2 = 3

• 2 + 3 = 5

• 3 + 5 = 8

• ... and so on!

This sequence is found in nature too — in pinecones, sunflower seeds, and even the spiral of snail shells!


Cool Math Fact:

The Fibonacci Sequence never ends and keeps growing bigger and bigger. It’s a mix of addition and patterns working together.

1️⃣ Start with a dot.

2️⃣ Draw a small spiral where each loop is longer using Fibonacci numbers (1 space, 1 space, 2, 3, 5…).

3️⃣ Use colors for each number step!

This visual game teaches how patterns can turn into beautiful designs — just like in real plants!

Learning Fibonacci is like discovering a secret code hidden in nature. It shows that math isn’t just about numbers — it’s part of the world around you.
