Golden Mean activity ideas (not statistics, but interesting extension on the arm span activity):

I always start this by having kids sketch a rectangle, measure the length and width, and find the ratio. Length/width should approach 1.618 (phi).

Aggregating data will get us closer to this value. This is all related to Fibonnaci numbers and has applications in art, nature, etc. etc. etc.
