Make a Bee Family Tree
• In groups of 3, make a family tree for a male drone bee.
• Count the number of MALE bees in each generation.
• Do you notice a pattern?

What’s the Pattern?
• Starting with the 3rd term, each term in this sequence is the sum of the two terms that come before it
• This pattern is called the Fibonacci Sequence
