It was another quite interesting coincidence: both of my 5th graders attending different schools where under the impression that to find the area of a given figure you just need to multiply all given dimensions!

Yesterday, one of my 5th grade students came from and they were talking about Pi and Circumference at their math class. But the teacher did not explain what is center, radius, and diameter of the circle, so my student was not sure what the middle of a circle is called and if diameter is a straight or broken line.
But 'Pi' sounded really cool! (though the teacher never mentioned that it is not exactly 3.14)
