8th Grade Math:  Today in math students began class with the problem of the day.  Next, students enjoyed PI day!  Students were introduced (or reintroduced) to the idea of the circumference of a circle and the diameter of a circle.  PI is the relationship or ratio of the circumference and the diameter of any circle.  Students participated in an activity where they measured several circular objects and calculated the resulting relationships. 

Assignments:    The PI worksheet is due Thursday.  Students are also to be working on their chapter 5 test corrections, due by Friday.
