Hello! I’m Nate Bergman, and
this post is about our pi day celebration. Before we begin, I want to tell you
pi is not the same as pie. Pi is a decimal, pie is a food. On March 12, 2015,
everyone in room 125 recited 10 digits of pi. (Some knew more, although we were
only required to do 10. I know 22: 3.141592653589793238462.) We went around one
table group at a time. Some people didn’t memorize it 100% yet, so they stayed
in for recess to practice, and they all recited it correctly after recess.
After we all recited pi, we watched a pi video witch had the pi song. I thought
it was great. We watched a few more times. When we finished the video, we found
the circumference of a plate by multiplying pi times the diameter (we only used
3.14). Blogged by Nate Bergman.
P.S. We
watched a different video about pi a few days later. I don’t know what it was
called, but it was funny.
I don't know what it was called either, Nate, but it sure was funny, like you said. I think that the pi day celebration was fun. I can recite the first digits. This is what they are 3.141592653589793238462633827. Olivia H. and Lara came up with a different pi song ( except for the fact that it was about pie not pi). It was funny. What was your favorite part of the pi day celebration and how many digits can you recite.
ReplyDeletewow Nate knows a lot of numbers I only know 10 3.1415926535. I had a lot of fun celebrating!
ReplyDeleteI loved reciting the first ten 10 digits of pi. I know 38 digits (3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841). It was hard to memorize them, but it was fun. If my brother gets into the Ms. Turchin's class, I could teach him some digits of pi that aren't required to get a certificate. I can't believe how good some of the new second graders did.
ReplyDeleteI agree a lot of second graders did great. Many recited more digits than the needed.
DeleteWe actually recited 11 (3.1415926535), because we recited 10 digits after the decimal.
ReplyDeleteI loved reciting the first ten digits of pi. I know the first 15 digits of pi (3.1415926535897.).
