Some students think math is boring, other students hate math, thank goodness for those that love math! One day a year, March 14th is a great day to show students that math is not boring and there is something to love about math. Celebrate Pi Day!
In researching Pi Day, I found the website TeachPi.org. In highlighting some parts of this website, I feel Pi Books is a great place to explore. If you have not read Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi (A Math Adventure), this story of Sir Cumference, Lady Di of Ameter, and Radius is a wonderful way to introduce the mathematical concept of pi.
TeachPi.org has activities, stories, songs, and much more! Some activities include crafts, contests, fun with digits, great eating activities, lessons, and projects. If you are looking for some great ideas to celebrate Pi Day TeachPi.org is a great place to start.
