Spaces, Functions, Polygons, and Pascal's Triangle
Keyword(s):
Two recent trends in the teaching of mathematics can often go hand in hand. These two are the spiral approach to content development and the discovery-teaching/learning method. This paper will present some topics that illustrate how these approaches to content and method may complement each other. Space will not permit the full explication as it might occur in a classroom, but it is hoped that both the discovery approach to mathematical conjecture as well as the spiral nature of the topics will be evident. The specific topics discussed here range from those for the upper elementary school pupil to those for the high school senior—the exact placement depends not only on the topic itself, but on the language and notation as well.
