The golden section has been a favorite topic of classroom investigation, reaching back to my public schools years in Greenfield. The concept is compelling, and the associated math is both fun, varied, and perfect for the review/practice of measurement and ratios. A nice way to close the school year.
The best source for an introduction to the golden section, in my opinion, remains the 1959 Disney production of Donald in Mathmagic Land, available for viewing on youtube.
