Poster requirements
Your poster must draw upon the unit materials and specifically address the following points:
1. Define and describe mathematics. Include examples of everyday mathematics phenomena (e.g. in nature or built environments) that can be explained using mathematics. For example; the number of petals on a lily blossom is always a Fibonacci number, the way in which fern leaves form a geometric fractal or the symmetry of a butterfly.

Other examples may include; the fractions of notes per measure to fit the tempo in music or the construction of the Egyptian pyramids using Pythagorean Theorem.
2. Define and describe numeracy, including examples of where you have used numeracy skills in your everyday life.
3. Describe the similarities and differences between mathematics and numeracy.
You must use APA referencing in-text and include a separate reference list.
