About the STEM Baseball Grades 3-5 & 6-8 Curriculum

Our STEM Baseball program will give your students the green light to learn about the science behind the national pastime. Students will hit and run through our double play combination of cognitive learning and physical activity as they round the bases through the eight module supplemental program. There’s nothing foul about adding STEM Baseball to your curriculum lineup when you know we’ll be covering the bases with lessons such as:

  • Learning about the composition of a baseball
  • Understanding the field of play on a baseball diamond
  • Hitting success at the plate
  • Engineering a pitching machine

All of our modules correlate to 5E lesson planning and we even include an extra inning, called Extend, to create a full count, bases loaded opportunity for every student.
