As a national pastime, sports are viewed and cheered on seasonally in many countries. Sports are a great way to learn about science, math, people, and their cultures. By investigating how a sport is played, along with its use of particular gear, many physics and mathematical concepts can be learned.
Sports memorabilia is often fun for kids to collect.
In this project students will learn about the different national sports, players, teams, and gear. They will participate in some research of their chosen sport. Students are invited to share writings, science displays, mathematical statistics, and artwork regarding their favorite sport. An exchange of real sports memorabilia will be facilitated among classes. This project aims to enhance understanding and acceptance of diverse cultures.
