Welcome class. Today we will be learning some fun facts about numbers. Can anyone share a fun fact they might know about numbers?
Did you know that different cultures have used different number systems throughout history? Today, we will talk about three different systems, base 10, base 2 (binary), and base 16 (hexadecimal). In each system, numbers are represented differently. Let's talk about some examples now.
Have you ever heard of Pi, e, the Golden Ratio, or Avogadro's Number? These are all examples of famous numbers in math. We will discuss what they are used for and how they are calculated.
Now it's time to have some fun with numbers. I will teach you some number games you can play on your own or with friends like "Guess My Number" or "Sudoku". After teaching some games, we will play one or two games as a class.
Have you ever noticed how some numbers follow a pattern? In math, we call these patterns mathematical patterns. Today we will look at a few cool mathematical patterns such as the Fibonacci sequence and Pascal's triangle.
That concludes our lesson for today. Let's review what we learned and share our favorite fun facts about numbers. Remember, you have homework to research and write about a famous number or number system. Don't forget to submit your homework by the next class.
Before we end class today, I will be checking your homework. Please hand it in and I will provide written feedback to each student.
