Fantasy Baseball and Iron Pigs!
This week, our students visited Coca-Cola Park to see the Iron Pigs Baseball Team of Lehigh Valley! The Park welcomed Casa Guadalupe and even chose one of our students to make the First Pitch.
This trip was a great visual activity to support the students’ class work in Fantasy Baseball, a math based enrichment activity. Fantasy Baseball allows students to create their own baseball team and find individual player statistics using math. Students improved their knowledge of percentages, ratios, averages, and probability. Towards the end of their calculations, they can challenge other students in class using spin cards. It is exciting to see who can get a home run!
