Summary

Pick a few numbers, draw some corresponding lines on grid paper, and you’ll end up with some interesting, looping math-y art!

  1. Students pick three small numbers and then draw lines with those lengths in clockwise order on grid paper. They'll experiment and look for patterns.
  2. Now they pick *more* than three small numbers and try again. Different numbers will generate differently shaped spirals. Encourage lots of experimenting!
  3. Using an online tool, students play with one graph, changing numbers as much as they'd like to find strange and interesting graphs.
