♾️ Discover patterns that can grow forever!

Students explore one of mathematics' biggest ideas as they investigate the fascinating concept of infinity. Inspired by Georg Cantor's groundbreaking discoveries and the engaging book Infinity: Figuring Out Forever, they'll uncover the rules behind growing patterns, then design and build a mathematical model that follows a clear rule and could continue without end.

Using hands-on exploration, prediction, and creative problem-solving, this STEM with Soul lesson develops mathematical thinking while encouraging curiosity, vision, and openness.

Students will discover that every great mathematical idea begins with a question—and that a simple pattern can lead to endless possibilities.
