Twelve Days of Mathematics for Christmas-Day 8-Secondary

Today students of all ages will play will working with one of my favorite mathematical topics of all time: Pascal’s Triangle! Secondary students, if they are not familiar with the triangle, can investigate the basic structure of the triangle using the 12 Days of Christmas as the backdrop. See the K3 activity for some questions/patterns that are appropriate for introductory work with the triangle. Blank triangles and work mats are also provided in the K3 activity pack. Be sure to have students first investigate the triangle and discover the basic pattern of creating the triangle before they move forward. The Intermediate/Middle School activity may be more appropriate for some students. Use it as needed to meet the individual needs of your students.

This activity is also good for students with dyslexia and language-based learning deficiencies. Please leave a review.
