Preparing for Pi Day
For the past few years our school has been celebrating Pi Day. Pi, a mathematical concept that stands roughly for 3.14, matches our official school number P.S. 314. People around the world celebrate Pi Day on March 14th or 3/14.
Children spend time learning about Pi and studying circles in their classroom leading up to the big day. Muscota’s Pi Day celebration is an event that the Parents Association and family volunteers bring to life for us each year in the gymnasium, where we play circle/Pi related games and eat pies and pizza pies.
If you are interested in learning more about Pi, sharing some activities with your children, or even singing Pi Day songs, you may enjoy visiting some of the following websites:

Keep an eye out for flyers from the Parents Association asking for volunteers and refreshments for Pi Day. We will posting pictures of this year’s celebration very soon…
