Pi Day

Baked Orange Pie

A day to celebrate math?! Yes, please!

It doesn’t matter the age, the understanding a circle’s circumference- celebrate Pi Day!

One of my favorite Pi Day activities for 3rd grade and above:

Pi Day Activity

Tools:

  • A bunch of cans, large and small
  • A bunch of strings or paper measuring tapes from Ikea
  • Meter sticks ideally, rulers or measuring tapes also work
  • Calculators
  • Pi Day worksheet

And there are SOOOO many fun websites to explore talking about Pi. It might be fun to discuss good foods for eating on Pi Day- and foods that wouldn’t necessarily make sense. Milkshake vs. Chicken Nugget, Klondike Bar vs. Chipwich, etc.
