Pi Day!

Today is Pi day. Pi is a math term that I definitely don't teach in 4th grade. The number is 3.1415926535 and keeps going and going and going. I used to be able to name a lot of numbers for pi because in high school in one of my math classes, the teacher had a lot of numbers listed for pi on the wall. Instead of paying attention to her teach, I would try to memorize pi. Today is the ultimate pi day since the first 5 digits are 3.1415 and today is 3/14/15. That won't happen again for another 100 years. All this talk about pi makes me want to eat pie! Unfortunately I don't have any here right now.
