Pi Day is coming on March 14, and the annual celebration offers a great opportunity for students to explore pi and math-related concepts. There are plenty of great teaching resources online to help your class celebrate Pi Day, so we thought we'd help you sort through them all.

Here are a few of our favorites from around the web, starting with an interesting music-related pi lesson, "What Pi Sounds Like," which was produced by musician Michael Blake. This video is a fun resource that can help students of all ages get excited about pi. Happy Pi Day!

San Francisco Exploratorium Pi Day Activities: Without the Exploratorium, official Pi Day celebrations might never have happened. In 1988, Exploratorium physicist Larry Shaw started the tradition, and it was recognized by Congress in 2009. The Exploratorium highlights some great hands-on activities, with links to useful pi-related resources.

The page features interesting information about the history of pi, ideas for activities, and a link to a web application for exploring the music of pi. Another great Scholastic resource is "Writing With Pi."

PBS LearningMedia Pi-Related Resources: PBS LearningMedia features a great collection of geometry lessons related to pi. These aren't specifically for Pi Day, but they're especially relevant on March 14. Plus, for more math and pi-themed lessons, OER Commons has curated more than 100 resources from a variety of sources.

I've always thought I needed to make a chart or use a graphic organizer, etc. to have my students link their info. LOVED the idea of simply making the background be your text and your students then link info into the text. So many possibilities! Such a simple, quick and engaging way to practice so many skills!
