[toggle_item title=”Oh, Number Pi<\/strong> (to the tune of ‘O, Christmas Tree’<\/em>)”]<\/p>\n

1. Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

You’re truly transcendental.<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

You’re physical and mental.<\/p>\n

You stretch the bounds…of all we know,<\/p>\n

And tell our circles where to go<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

Your digits are so gentle.<\/p>\n

2. Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

Why can’t I learn you faster?<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

You’re really hard to master.<\/p>\n

Just when I think…I’ve got you down<\/p>\n

I flip a 6 and 5 around<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

Numerical disaster!<\/p>\n

3. Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

Why are you so specific?<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

Your digit growth’s terrific.<\/p>\n

Ten years ago, you had a Mill<\/p>\n

And now you’re at a couple Trill<\/p>\n

Oh, number Pi, Oh, number Pi<\/p>\n

You stretch to the Pacific!<\/p>\n

[toggle_item title=”Ludolph the Mathematician<\/strong> (to the tune of ‘Rudolph’)<\/em>“]<\/p>\n

We know Einstein and Euclid and Sir Isaac Newton<\/p>\n

Lifelong devotions there ain\u2019t no disputin\u2019<\/p>\n

But do you recall\u2026<\/p>\n

The most tireless one of them all?<\/p>\n

Ludolph the Mathematician<\/p>\n

Had a special thing for Pi<\/p>\n

He made it his life\u2019s mission<\/p>\n

To help the number specify<\/p>\n

All of his fellow teachers<\/p>\n

Never understood his plan<\/p>\n

To unlock the number\u2019s magic<\/p>\n

By calculating it by hand!<\/p>\n

Then in 1599,<\/p>\n

Ludolph set his goal…<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll find digit 35<\/p>\n

With geometry as my guide!<\/p>\n

Then how the math world loved him<\/p>\n

All his hard work helped them see<\/p>\n

Ludolph the Mathematician<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll go down in history!<\/p>\n

[toggle_item title=”Pi Day Time<\/strong> (to the tune of ‘Silver Bells’<\/em>)” ]<\/p>\n

(starting at ‘City sidewalks…’)<\/em><\/p>\n

Random digits,<\/p>\n

Endless digits<\/p>\n

Transcendental in style,<\/p>\n

In the air there’s a feeling of Pi Day.<\/p>\n

Children laughing,<\/p>\n

People graphing,<\/p>\n

Worry-free for a while,<\/p>\n

And in every math classroom you’ll hear\u2026<\/p>\n

Three one four\u2026<\/p>\n

One five nine\u2026<\/p>\n

It’s Pi Day Time at [our school!]<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Three one four\u2026<\/p>\n

One five nine\u2026<\/p>\n

Savor those numbers, today!<\/p>\n

[toggle_item title=”Ring the Bells<\/strong> (to the tune of ‘Jingle Bells’<\/em>)”]<\/p>\n

Basking in the glow<\/p>\n

Of a Math Class holiday.<\/p>\n

All we need to know<\/p>\n

Is “Pi will lead the way!”<\/p>\n

To circles we will sing,<\/p>\n

The digits we’ll recite<\/p>\n

The ratio gives us everything<\/p>\n

It’s geometry’s delight! Oh!<\/p>\n

Ring the bells, Pi Day spells<\/p>\n

Fun with 3 – 1 – 4!<\/p>\n

It’s the day to celebrate<\/p>\n

That number we adore! Oh!<\/p>\n

Ring the bells, Pi Day spells<\/p>\n

Fun with 3 – 1 – 4!<\/p>\n

First we take one slice of Pi<\/p>\n

And then we ask for more!<\/p>\n
