Get Creative With Pi Day Classroom Activities

Every year, March 14 (3.14) marks Pi Day! Students, teachers, and math-fanatics of all ages will be celebrating.  How much do you know about Pi? How many numbers can you recite from memory? There are some amazing Pi Day classroom resources and activities out there! Check out our Pi Day Pinterest Board, where we've pinned some of the best collections of activities we came across. We urge you to also incorporate writing and animation into your Pi Day festivities. Consider trying this with our program Animation-ish.
