Pi’s Day: Let’s square the circle! – NEW educational program for children from third to sixth grade

The NOESIS team invites you to the NEW educational program they created, inspired by the science of Mathematics!

The moment we have all been waiting for is a fact!

Children will love Mathematics and solve all their problems!

How will this be done? Mathematics is everywhere! Mathematics is present in the chair you sit in, in the pizza you eat, in your computer, in the human body, in the Sun, in the universe, in music and in painting!

Our assistant in exploring the magic of Mathematics is the mysterious mathematical constant π = 3.14…. The little scientists will experiment with it, discover how it is connected to the circle and come to conclusions concerning the basis that has been set regarding the squaring of the circle with ruler and diabetes!

The program includes:
– 90 minutes of experiential education and entertainment.
– Conducting activities/constructions in an individual and group context.
– Commemorative gift.

Day of the “p” – What is it?
On March 14, we celebrate the day of the “π” or otherwise the number 3.14159265. In mathematics, π is a mathematical constant, a symbol, which is used internationally and represents the quotient of the length of the circumference of a circle divided by the diameter of the circle. The Day of π is celebrated every year on March 14 (3/14 in the American way of writing dates), because 3, 1 and 4 are the first three digits of the number pi (π = 3.14159…) in the decimal numbering system. In 1988, the first festive event was organized for the Day of pi. Its initiator and organizer was the American physicist and artist Larry Shaw (Lawrence N. Shaw, 1939-2017), who worked in one of the most famous Science Museums in the world, the Exploratorium, in San Francisco, USA.
