Plus Advent Calendar Door #23: Fractal christmas trees!

A huge thank you to Emma Morgan for our favourite idea for Christmas cards – Sierpinski Christmas trees!

Creating these lovely cards is just a matter of simple folding and cutting – there's still time to make some for the big day! You can find out how in Emma's video. And you can find out many more creative things you can do with folding and cutting on Wild Maths.

Wild Maths encourages students to explore maths beyond the classroom and is designed to nurture mathematical creativity. The site is aimed at 7 to 16 year-olds, but open to all. It provides games, investigations, stories and spaces to explore, where discoveries are to be made. Some have starting points, some a big question and others offer you a free space to investigate.
