Fibonacci, Miles and Kilometres - A Strange Link

My written piece is a blog post intended for students of year 10/11 and above (The first page explains my intended audience further).

A Short Introduction to Square Packing

My video is, as the name suggests, a short introduction to the square packing problem and is aimed for year 7s and above, including adults.
