Fractal cards are beautiful “pop-up” cards that are reasonably easy to make and full of mathematics. Activities simple enough for middle school students or challenging enough for secondary and postsecondary students can be developed around fractal cards. Constructing a fractal card is quite simple, yet the mathematics is quite elegant. Some mathematics of fractal cards includes the following: measure. number patterns, sequences, series, limits, fractals and geometry.
