Happy Pi Day

March 14th was Pi Day (3.14). After measuring many different baked pies in the classroom (diameter and circumference) and discovering that Pi= circumference/diameter, we reversed the process and found circumference of different circles using the formula C=Pi/diameter. We also found the area of circles using pi.

Overall, it was a successful, math filled day.  A wonderful way to spend an afternoon after CRTs.
