\n<\/object><\/p>\n

Here are some resources that can be used to celebrate Pi day:<\/p>\n

Flocabulary’s Pi Day Activities<\/a>
\nI know I’ve mentioned this before, but I just love flocabulary!\u00a0 This resource includes three videos as well as six lesson ideas.\u00a0 My favorite is baking a Pi Pie!\u00a0 Right now, Flocabulery is having a free, unlimited school wide access deal through June!<\/a>\u00a0 Now’s the time to check them out!<\/p>\n

Cybrary Man’s Math Page<\/a>
\nI like cybrary man because he does all the hard work for us.\u00a0 He has a great list of Pi Day resources on his Math page.<\/p>\n

TeachPi.Org<\/a>
\nClick on the activities link for a great list of Pi activities!<\/p>\n

Exploring Pi<\/a>
\nThis Scholastic resource is for grades 1-8 and includes the history of Pi and well as fun activities to use with students about Pi.<\/p>\n

Pi Across America<\/a>
\nAnother great resource with activities and information about Pi!<\/p>\n

#piday<\/a>
\nFind resources and activities on twitted by using #piday.\u00a0 Not on twitter?\u00a0 No worries!\u00a0 Just google “#piday” and you’ll have access to all the piday awesomeness!<\/p>\n

Did you know that Einstein was born on 3\/14?<\/em><\/p>\n

Did you know that July 22 is Pi Approximation? If you use the day\/month date format, July 22 is 22\/7 and 22\/7 is an approximation of Pi.\u00a0 Who knew?<\/em><\/p>\n
