STEAM day

For STEAM day, 5th graders rotated to the Art room to create mathematical skylines.  We watched a video on circles and the number PI and students took notes.  Students then had to make a skyline on graphing paper using the numbers of PI. 







Each table then had to choose a representative to come to the front of the room to participate in a quiz contest.  The winning table won a prize. 

Afterwards students were given two minutes to memorize as many numbers of PI that they could and then we ran outside with chalk and they wrote down what they could remember on the sidewalk.  The student with the most correct numbers won a lollipop...although I should have rewarded them with a slice of pie.
