A Slice of Pi Day Art – A Tribute to the Mathematician’s Favorite Day – March 14

by Bill Lombard on 10 March, 2008

Pi is probably the most well-known mathematical constant, and it even has its own special day – March 14 (3.14)! Throughout the world people recognize the significance of pi and its contribution to mathematics in particular and to humanity as a whole.

Each year my students celebrate Pi in several ways. We, of course, have a classroom event where students bring food – anything that’s round! They also memorize pi to 30 decimal places. We have “Pi Day Wordies”, words beginning with the letters “pi” – see link below. And many students create works of pi art – the focus of this post. Here is the link to some of the art my students have created – A Slice of Pi Day Art
