Students work in groups to measure several plastic lids and record their findings. Students compare the relationship between the diameter and radius, then complete a "Circumference vs. Diameter" worksheet. Students explain the circumference formula based on their measurement comparisons. Worksheets and information about "Pi Day" are included.
