Task Description
π is an interesting symbol in the Mathematics world. Before learning the circumference module, students used a pre-study worksheet to explore the relationship between the diameter and circumference. Next, students measured the circumference and diameter with three given circles and observed their relationship by doing calculations. After that, they checked their findings by calculation and measurement.

Student's Reflection
Most students may think calculating the circumference of a circle is tricky, but I didn't think so. When finding the relationship between the circumference and diameter of a circle, we had to be careful as we used a rope to measure. I think the process is challenging and fun at the same time. I enjoyed learning and solving a mathematical problem about π.
Teacher's Comment
Ryan showed outstanding effort in the pre-study. Not only did he measure the diameter and circumference of a circle patiently, but he also tried his very best to strive for accuracy in his findings. Moreover, he searched for more information on the internet and made appropriate references.
