Pi Day is more than just eating dessert and writing digits until students’ hands cramp.

In this webinar, we’ll dig into meaningful, student-friendly Pi Day activities that go beyond the novelty and actually deepen understanding.

Participants will explore hands-on activities for:

• Calculating pi using measurement and ratios.
• Discovering radians through circles and arc length (without the usual confusion spiral).
• Approximating pi using random points and probability—yes, chaos can be mathematical.
• Investigate zeros and extreme values inspired by AP exam problems.

We’ll discuss how to implement each activity with TI-84 Plus CE and TI-Nspire™ CX II graphing calculators, share classroom-ready ideas, and talk through ways to scale activities for middle and high school learners. Expect practical takeaways, minimal prep, and fun for everyone.
No baking required. Curiosity encouraged!
