Mrs. Kim Stanley's math classes recently celebrated Pi Day, a day devoted to learning and having fun with the ratio between the diameter and the circumference of a circle, which is 3.141592653.

Mrs. Stanley assigned a project for the celebration. She told the class to write a Pi Poem. Not poems about pi itself, but poems where each word has the same number of letters as the corresponding digit of pi. The first word would have three letters, the second word would have one letter, the third word would have four letters, and so on.

It was a challenge for the students to create a logical poem with an exact number of letters to be used, but they did it!

Curian McCaskill's Pi Poem All I want, I might celebrate to Christ cause He's great, gracious, forgiving, special, remindful and is love. Precious Lord - helper of people. Love all and glorify Him. God is amazing, blessful, sweet, merciful.
