At MacDuffie we celebrate maths and science in our classes and across the curriculum. A love of mathematics is of course super important to our studies, but it is also an essential life skill to promote in all our young people, so they can fully engage in the technological challenges of life today. A creative approach to numeracy and a deeper understanding of the insights afforded by the questioning and investigative approaches afforded by scientific study will give the essential skills needed for both College and work lives. And with our amazing team of teachers we can make learning an inspirational activity every day.

　　That is why we celebrate Pi Day here at MacDuffie and this year our online activities, games and competitions have been an excellent example of our community coming together to work and have fun whilst showing off our Math skills.

　　這也是我們美達(dá)菲學(xué)校為什么要慶祝數(shù)學(xué)日，今年我們?cè)诰�的活動(dòng)、游戲和比賽是一個(gè)很好的例子—在展示數(shù)學(xué)技能的同時(shí)提現(xiàn)團(tuán)隊(duì)合作和學(xué)習(xí)的快樂!

　　參加數(shù)學(xué)日的孩子們：

　　You all really put forth a fantastic effort. Judging the work was not an easy task. The amount of creativity and imagination many of you displayed was wonderful to see. It was exciting to read your ppts and posters to see how much you knew and learned about Pi and its significance.

　　你們?cè)诨顒?dòng)中都付出了極大的努力。評(píng)判你們的作品實(shí)在很困難。同學(xué)們所展示出來的創(chuàng)造性和想象力是驚人的。欣賞你們的展示、海報(bào)，看到你們對(duì)Pi及其意義的理解是令人興奮的事情。

　　On the afternoon of Friday, March 13th, a 7th and 8th grade of π thematic knowledge and fun contest was held. The activity was divided into two sessions. The students who spoke in the microphone were given opportunities to answer questions, and the questions in the knowledge contest were both easy knowledge about π combined with the science and mathematics they learned, and small activities that allowed students to understand π in daily life, such as within a limited time find as many round items as possible at home, or have the largest circumference than the round items found in a given period of time. The game is very fierce. The seventh and eighth grade scores have been chasing each other.

　　The second part of the activity was a guessing game. Students draw patterns and guess the described objects according to the teacher's description. Of course, all the patterns have a round participation (first picture is about the most popular app recently –ding talk ) In this activity, the students discussed enthusiastically and participated actively. In the end, the eighth grade scored 65 to 60 to beat the seventh grade. The prizes are Houliyou Pie after school starts!

　　3月13日周五下午，舉辦了一場(chǎng)七八年級(jí)π主題知識(shí)趣味對(duì)抗賽， 活動(dòng)分為兩個(gè)部分，部分為知識(shí)競(jìng)答環(huán)節(jié)，在此環(huán)節(jié)中， 聽到老師指令后，最先連麥的同學(xué)，獲得搶答機(jī)會(huì)，知識(shí)競(jìng)答環(huán)節(jié)中的題，既有結(jié)合所學(xué)科學(xué)數(shù)學(xué)關(guān)于π的小知識(shí)，還有讓學(xué)生們認(rèn)識(shí)日常生活中的π的小活動(dòng)，如在限定的時(shí)間內(nèi)，在家里找到盡可能多的圓形物品，或者在規(guī)定的時(shí)間內(nèi)比比誰(shuí)找到的圓形物品周長(zhǎng)最大，比賽很激烈，七八年級(jí)比分一直你追我趕，僵持不下。

　　活動(dòng)第二部分為猜圖游戲，同學(xué)們根據(jù)老師的描述，畫出圖案并猜測(cè)描述的物體，當(dāng)然所有的圖案都有圓的參與(個(gè)圖案正是我們天天用的釘釘軟件圖標(biāo))在此活動(dòng)中，同學(xué)們熱烈討論，積極參與，最后總比分八年級(jí)以65比60 險(xiǎn)勝七年級(jí)。獎(jiǎng)品是開學(xué)后的好麗友派。
