Welcome to Middle School Math
Hello!!!
My name is Debbie Price. I think math is fun! I want my class to stimulate curiosity and allow students to view math as an adventure.
Pascal's Triangle
Pascal's triangle is named after the French mathematician and philosopher Blaise Pascal(1623-62), who wrote, "A Treatise on the Arithmetical Triangle." But, Pascal was not the first to draw out this triangle or to notice its amazing properties!
Do you see a pattern?
M.C. Escher - Artist or Mathematician?
The Dutch artist Maurits Cornelis Escher(1898-1972) used transformational geometry to create intriguing works of art. He took up art in 1919, and became famous in the 1940's and 1950's for his novel tessellations of the plane and realistic depictions of impossible scenes.
A tessellation (or tiling) is a repeating pattern of figures that completely covers a plane without gaps or overlaps.
