Hope you celebrating the Ultimate Pi Day 3/14/15 at 9:26:53 AM!

The Ultimate Pi Day

On March 14th, 2015, the Ultimate Pi day will be celebrated. Why the Ultimate? Because the date and time will line up to match the first 10 numbers of Pi. 3.141592653. So March 14, 2015 at 9:26 and 53 seconds.
This is on a Saturday and on our Spring Break holiday, but many teachers will hopefully celebrate on Friday.

Several resources for good activities to do that help celebrate Pi Day.
