About the STEM Sports® - Baseball Program

The 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 the double play combination of cognitive learning and physical activity as they round the bases through the eight-module program. There's nothing foul about adding STEM Baseball to your curriculum lineup when you know it covers 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 the modules correlate to 5E lesson planning and even include an extra inning, called Extend, to create a full count, bases loaded opportunity for every student.

A STEM Baseball kit will reach hundreds of students over a handful of years and will serve as a true educational baseball resource. A STEM Baseball kit comes with all the sports equipment and science supplies to go along with each lesson, including:

one (1) STEM Baseball teacher manual, six (6) baseballs, one (1) baseball cut-in-half, one (1) softball, one (1) radar gun, six (6) digital stopwatches, six (6) 25' tape measures, and one (1) weight scale. Each STEM Baseball kit is priced at $1,155.00.

A non-sport STEM Baseball kit is not available; manual is priced at $749
