"The Sierpinski triangle is a self-similar fractal that was discovered by Waclaw Sierpinski in 1915. My students created a representation of it by playing the Chaos Game, generating random numbers with a die, and marking the midpoints of segments.

Ours is about 3 feet tall and consists of 256 small pyramids," Mrs. Coan explained.
