Plan a Pi Day Celebration for March 14
Mathematics and science teachers in classrooms celebrate Pi Day during the month of March. Pi -- the number 3.14… -- gets its own special day on 3/14, or March 14. Below is a collection of links to ideas and activities that will help teachers plan a Pi Day celebration for their classrooms or school.
Each year on 3/14, teachers in classrooms across the globe take a break from the normal routine to plan a special celebration in honor of pi, or the number 3.14...
March 14 also happens to be the birth date of Albert Einstein -- which makes the day an extra special one for planning math challenges and math fun!

Pi Day activities are meant to enrich and deepen students' understanding of the concept of pi. Activities might include investigations of the value of pi, special pi projects and assignments.
Because pi is 3.14159…, some schools hold their big Pi Day celebrations on 3/14 at exactly 1:59 p.m.
