Pi gives us a way to find the circumference of circles; this article shares four ways to introduce and explore Pi by looking at circles in nature. For younger students, the first activity uses a scavenger hunt for students to find circles in nature. For older students ready to measure circumference, the scavenger hunts expand to finding the circumference of natural objects, such as tree trunks. Additional suggestions include "Pi-Ku" poetry and exploring ingredients found in students' favorite pies from nature. Each activity description includes a link to further information to help plan the activity.
In the Classroom
Add this site to your Pi Day resources for use when lesson planning. If students can access mobile devices, use Goosechase, reviewed here to gamify your scavenger hunt. Have students work in groups to participate in a mission to find and document circular objects in nature. Extend learning when older students measure the circumference of circular objects, ask them to share their calculations, and describe their observations using Padlet, reviewed here, specifically the Sandbox tool or the Journal "recipe." The Sandbox option allows students to draw, create, and collaborate with others in real-time, while the journal option includes areas for personal reflection and documentation of activities.42 Mathtastic Pi Day Activities for the Classroom - We Are Teachers

Find My Pi Day is an educational tool designed to engage students in exploring the fascinating relationship between birthdays and the mathematical constant Pi. The website was created to help people find when their birthday corresponds to the mathematical constant Pi. The website calculates and displays the digits of Pi and matches them with the digits in your birthday. This can be a fun way to celebrate Pi Day, which is observed on March 14th.

In the Classroom
Integrating Find My Pi Day into your classroom offers a unique opportunity to engage students in exploring the fascinating world of Pi while enhancing their mathematical understanding. Engage and kickstart the exploration of Pi by using a collaborative whiteboard tool like FigJam, reviewed here to do a graffiti board brainstorm. On the whiteboard show Pi's decimal representation and invite students to jot down everything they know or think about the number Pi as they see it, encouraging free expression and brainstorming! After students have shared connections to Pi on the 'graffiti board,' direct them to the TeachersFirst Special Topics page to learn more about Pi Day and its significance. You can create a virtual scavenger hunt using tools like Google Forms, reviewed here or Microsoft Forms, reviewed here where you can create tasks for them to search for specific information on the Pi Day website. Extend the learning experience by allowing students to investigate and research real-world applications of Pi in fields such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). They can present their findings with tools like Canva Education Templates, reviewed here or Prezi, reviewed here.All About the Holidays - PBS Learning Media

Share these videos on your interactive whiteboard or projector as wonderful math journal and discussion starters. Choose a video about an interesting number fact that can be used to hook students into a particular lesson or unit. Use the videos to show the fascinating side of mathematics. For example, 666 and its peculiarity in mathematics would be interesting to students. Make a math enrichment center for your gifted students or "hook" math-haters (or girls) by letting them select and critique their own video choice from this site. Embed a video on your class wiki and have students use the discussion tab to comment on what they like about it or were surprised to learn. Use in your blended classroom by flipping and having students view the videos at home to discuss the next day in class. (This is a great option if YouTube is blocked in your school.) Be sure to provide this link on your class website for students (and their families) to access at home. Modify learning by having students make their own advertising videos about their favorite or "lucky" number using a tool such as MoocNote, reviewed here, where students can embed questions, comments, and polls into videos.

The main idea of the site is that one needs to understand math; it is not just learned or memorized, and the explanations form the basis of understanding. Topics include Mental Math shortcuts, discovering pi, different bases, and much more. The founder of this site stated: "I want to share hard-won "a ha!" moments in clear and simple language. Even Math shortcuts are fun, I promise." Many of the explanations aren't quite as "clear and simple" as students may like; however, there are a great number of topics explored on the site and they are worth the time to break apart and discuss as a class. Not finding your topic? I know, this is a long list of links. Use the search bar; for example, type in pi and find well over two dozen links for pi.
