2. Print and copy the response pages (in PDF) for each student. Display a reading passage ("Pi Day History" or "Pi Celebrations") on the projector screen and read the passage together, completing the response on paper.
3. Print passages and response pages for students from the PDF resource. The pages are provided in color and B&W.
