Description
The Pythagorean spiral project uses the Pythagorean Theorem to create a beautiful spiral if done correctly. This can be used from Pre-Algebra all the way to graduation as a good way to teach the Pythagorean Theorem as well as constructions. Have the student decorate the spiral after to add some flare to their work!

My students love seeing how they can artistically apply the Pythagorean Theorem. They always feel so grown up by creating something that appears so complex! Thank you for this resource.

My students are doing this project bit by bit when they finish classwork or when a lesson runs short of our scheduled 90 minute block. It's perfect for strengthening skills related to right angles, dilation, and construction. It also allows for creativity. Great resource!
