MathHappens started off Austin Museum Day bright and early by heading to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.
-
- Golden Ratio calipers are great to show the golden ratio on hands…
-
- …and on arms…
-
- …no matter what age…
-
- …or size you are.
Visitors thoroughly enjoyed learning about the Golden Ratio and how it appears throughout the world around us. Visitors discovered the Golden Ratio on their arms, hands, in a hurricane, on an ant and zebra, and more! A popular make-and-take activity was coloring and wearing a Golden Ratio Spiral Necklace. People of all ages were having fun and learning something new.

- Everyone seemed to have a great time!
It was Paola and Kyla’s first time working at a MathHappens event and they did a great job interacting with visitors, as did our returner, Devika. We are thankful to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center for allowing MathHappens to be a part of their Austin Museum Day activities. We had a great time and hope to be back soon!
