In Miss Wagor's & Mrs. Legg's class at Cairo-Durham Elementary School, students engaged with the concept of volume through a hands-on activity using unit cube blocks. The class was challenged to construct as many rectangular prisms as possible, carefully recording each prism's dimensions. Through this activity, students were able to gain a deeper understanding of volume measurement and its real world applications!

With March 14, 2024 being recognized as "Pi Day" (3.14159...), Mrs. Jones' Precalculus classes at Cairo-Durham High School and the Cairo-Durham Middle School 7th grade celebrated in unique ways! High School students created their own "Pi Day" t-shirts and helped decorate Mrs. Jones' classroom. In 7th grade, Students in Mrs. Trotti’s class created "Pi Day" ornaments after calculating the area and circumference of circles, as well as the volume of cylinders and learning historical facts regarding Pi. Students in Mr. Shufelt’s class worked collaboratively to create a paper chain composed of 1,000 digits of Pi after a contest, during which students recited as many digits of Pi they were able to memorize. Students in Mrs. Caskey’s class discovered Pi as the ratio of the circumference to the diameter, by measuring circles and completing a hands-on activity. Students in Mr. Kohn’s class learned the rules of haiku writing, and then immediately broke those rules by changing the syllable count required for each line. Students began with writing traditional haikus in the 5-7-5 syllable format, then finished their activity by writing several “Pi-ku” poems in a 3-1-4 syllable format on topics of their choice. The day at CDMS culminated with students assembling in the gym for the 2nd Annual Pi(e)-a-teacher-in-the-face-competition. Students worked collaboratively to collect pennies as part of the "Penny Wars" competition to support the CDMS P2 program. The teacher collecting the most pennies was pied.
