Point out to students how the<br />
Koch snowflake is beginning to<br />
approximate a curve, but is still<br />
constructed of straight lines.<br />
Students will think that the area<br />
of the Koch Snowflake will not<br />
converge since it appears as if<br />
new area is being added to the<br />
figure with each iteration.<br />
To make sure that students<br />
understand the behavior of the<br />
Koch snowflake, have them<br />
construct and fill out a table<br />
similar to one shown below:<br />
