Pi Day is Coming!

PI DAY OPPORTUNITIES


Hello MJC math colleagues!  Would you be willing to help out with pi-related activities at the upcoming Pi Day event?  MJC has been hosting Pi Day since 2015.  It's been very well attended, as you can see below:


And, of course, pizza pie and dessert pi are available!  Food is a big draw - especially for college students!




ACTIVITIES

Pi Chain




Buffon's Needle


 

Digits of Pi Memorization Contest


(The winner - below - made it to 202 digits!)


We also have activities for "discovering" pi (by measuring circumferences and diameters of circular objects) and seeing amazing pi-related surprises!

 

It's also a great excuse to wear your cool math tee-shirts!
