More on Sierpinski

Objective: Another place where you might not expect fractals to appear is on Pascal's Triangle. In this activity, students explore multiples in Pascal's triangle. In particular, they should look at multiples of two.

Materials: Each student will need

Explorations questions for students:

  1. What does the word multiple mean?

  2. What fractal properties are exhibited by the pattern you created by highlighting multiples of two?
