What educators are saying
Our pi chain was so long! A week later I broke it apart and we shared a "piece of pi" with younger students.
Description
Pi day is March 14th! These are the perfect addition to your instruction!
Pi is a name given to the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. Basically, you can take any circle and divide the circumference (think distance around the circle) by the diameter. Pi is an irrational number meaning that it never ends and the decimal pattern doesn't repeat. The coolest part about pi is that there is no known pattern to the decimal digits.
