Fibonacci Day is November 23rd (11/23 in the American date style), and this year it falls on a Saturday.
But that’s no excuse not to celebrate!
We can do math on the weekend, you know. Or we can just play in advance of the day itself. In fact, we could take a whole Fibonacci Week and not run out of interesting math to play with.
Sonya Post has our back with lots of great ideas:
One Way to Play: Fib Poetry
Long-time readers know I like to get students thinking creatively about math, and I’ve written before about the value of math poetry.
So when Sonya included the Fib in her carnival post, I couldn’t help myself…
Fib:
A strange
Way to count,
Adding syllables
Until the words breed like rabbits.
For the rules of Fib poetry, and lots of other mathy fun, don’t miss this carnival!

The Playful Math Blog Carnival wants you!
The carnival is a joint effort. We depend on our volunteer hosts to collect blog posts and write the carnival each month.
Classroom teachers, homeschoolers, college professors, unschoolers, or anyone who likes to play around with math — if you would like to take a turn hosting the carnival, please speak up!
