3.14

Today is my birthday! In the past, I've had fun with this day with my elementary students. First off, it is also Pi Day. So we would have a Pi Day party with my fifth graders. I love the Exploratorium's Pi Day resources.

I would also share the book Sir Cumference and the Dragon of Pi (A Math Adventure)
by Cindy Neuschwander








For for a deeper look into pi, there is The Joy of Pi by David Blatner.










Or how about Pi Day online greeting cards- http://www.123greetings.com/events/pi_day/
To top off the day, we would celebrate by eating...pie.

So many fun resources online to celebrate Pi Day or my birthday.
(It is also Einstein's birthday, but that's for another post.)
