Innovative Wisdom
π，一个神奇的数字。它是学生第一个接触的无理数，约等于3.14，代表了圆周长与直径的比值。然而，在学生们深入学习的过程中，他们会发现π好像又作为一把钥匙，联通了整个数学世界。今天是国际圆周率日“3.14 π ”日。让我们和上海青浦区协和双语学校初中部的同学们一起，迎接这个全体数学爱好者的节日，开启一段美妙的数学世界探索之旅……
"π" is a magical number, the first irrational number that students encounter. Approximately equaling 3.14, it represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. However, through in-depth studies, students discover that π seems to act as a ‘key’, connecting the entire world of mathematics. March 14 is International Pi Day, "3.14 π" day. Let us, together with students from SUIS Qingpu’s middle school, welcome this festival for all mathematics enthusiasts and embark on a wonderful journey of exploring the world of mathematics...
“数我最棒，绘出精彩”——数学创意设计
著名数学家哈尔莫斯说：“数学是一种别具匠心的艺术”。 为了让每个学生亲近数学、认识数学、挑战数学，开展了数学手抄报的制作活动。 让我们一起来感受一下同学们对数学的热爱吧！
数学是一个五颜六色的万花筒，它既漂亮又神奇。以数学为主题，不但让学生从单调乏味的数字中摆脱出来，更能激起学生对数学的浓厚兴趣。
"Count me as the best; draw out the wonder"
- Mathematical Creative Design
The famous mathematician Hermann Weyl once said, "Mathematics is an imaginative art". In order to allow every student to get closer to mathematics, to understand, and to challenge that understanding, a math poster-making activity was devised for students. Let's all share our classmates’ love for mathematics!
Mathematics is a colourful kaleidoscope - it is both beautiful and magical. By using mathematics as a theme, it not only helps students to break free from the monotony of numbers, but also piques their interest to explore and discover in other areas.
“数我会玩，玩出精彩”——魔方比赛
数学活动“魔方”是源于匈牙利的益智玩具。在比赛过程中，台上选手手指翻飞，快速转动魔方，整个会场只能听到魔方转动的声音，有的选手不到1分钟就复原好了。选手们敏锐的观察力和迅捷的动作，引来了观众们的阵阵赞叹。
"Count me as a player; play out the wonder"
- Rubik's Cube Competition
"Rubik's Cube" is a puzzle toy originating from Hungary. In the competition, the contestants on stage quickly rotate the Rubik's Cube parts in order to be the first to match all the colours. The auditorium was filled with the sounds of fervent clicking and twisting. Some contestants could solve their cube in less than one minute. The contestants' keen observation skills and quick movements were watched with awe.
“数学we来，赛出精彩”——数学知识竞赛
数学知识竞赛于3月15日下午在剧场举办，本次比赛以小组为单位，共11个小组参赛。比赛分为必答题、抢答题两个环节，最后综合两个环节所得分数得出最终成绩。这是一场智慧与能力的较量，默契与协作的比拼。接下来一起重温紧张刺激的比赛现场吧。
第一环节“初露锋芒”，各个小组有条不紊地解答题目，认真钻研，表现积极，精神饱满，充分展示出了各个小组成员的知识储备能力。
“Pi”的记忆大比拼“放轻松，这里并不需要你打破吉尼斯世界记录”～虽然话是这么说，但是现场充满了硝烟，因为这是一项比拼记忆力的活动，孩子们需要现场背诵π小数点后面的数字，背诵多的同学胜出。
第二环节“眼疾手快”，此环节考验各个小组成员的反应能力，比赛现场精彩绝伦，各个小组比拼激烈，火药味十足。
"Math, we are coming to compete for the wonder!"
- Math Knowledge Contest
The math knowledge contest was held in the theater on the afternoon of March 15. Competitors were organized into groups, with a total of 11 groups participating. The competition was divided into two parts: individual questions and buzzer questions. The final score was made up of the results from both rounds. This activity combined intelligence and ability, as well as cooperation and coordination. Let’s look at some highlights from that exciting competition!
In the first part, each group answered the questions in an orderly manner, carefully analyzing each question and working together to solve it. This activity fully demonstrated the members’ knowledge.
The "Pi" memory contest was more relaxed, but the atmosphere was still electric as the audience watched the contestants battle to compare their memory skills. The students had to recite the digits after Pi’s decimal point ‘on the spot’ - the student who recited the most digits won.
In the second part, ‘quick eyes and quick hands’ was the theme. This activity tested the reaction speed of each group member. The competition was intense, and the atmosphere was full of excitement.
“数你最美，独我精彩”——数学集市
在这场“Pi”Day数学特别日活动中，我们看到了来自所有同学们对数学的热情，或许数学对于一些人来说的很痛苦，但是在青浦协和，大家可以快乐数学，游戏数学。
学好数学不仅仅是能在数学考试中获得高分，更是需要大家对数学充满热忱，今天在学生们脸上看到的热情与幸福，不是一天可以形成的，也不是单一课堂可以形成的，而是青浦协和数学组用无数个日日夜夜“培育”出来的。
π3.14159······是无限不循环小数，正如同老师带着同学们探索永无止境的数学。对于青浦协和所有学生来说，“Pi”Day不是结束，而是蒸蒸日上的延续，希望越来越多的孩子们能来到青浦协和体验数学之美。
Maths Bazaar
It was great to see so much enthusiasm for mathematics among the students at the "Pi Day” mathematics event. Math is not just about getting high scores in exams, but also about developing a passion for numbers. It's a wonder to see the joy and happiness on the faces of the students. This is all thanks to the hard work of the mathematics teachers at SUIS Qingpu.
As we all know, π = 3.14159... It is an infinite and non-repeating decimal, just like how mathematics has endless possibilities for exploration. "Pi Day” is not just a one-day event but is an event that fosters a continuation of our efforts to nurture a love for math among the students at SUIS Qingpu. We hope that more and more students will come to experience the beauty of mathematics at our school.
