Look at me… I’m repeating myself!

Fractals are self-similar objects. Self-similar forms are created by constantly repeating the same process of building the object forever.

 

Here are a few examples… Do you notice the building process of fractals?

Pentagon

The Sierpiński carpet

Golden spiral

Try to draw one of the fractals shown above!

There are no real math fractals in nature, but there are many natural creations that are very similar to fractals.

Try to draw your own fractal tree! Is your tree deciduous or evergreen?
