Hey everyone!
I am a HS Math Teacher and was recently awarded a grant to spend the month of June traveling to over 12 different stadiums/cities. My plan is to use Megabus as my mode of transportation for most of the trip. I will be traveling to Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Washington DC, Philadelphia, Baltimore, New York (NYY), Boston, Cooperstown, New York (NYM).
My love of baseball drives this project. Many students have never become familiar with this wonderful sport. My goal is to introduce them to baseball, while also showing the importance of math in the sport through quadratics, matrices, statistics, scale, and geometry.
I used this site immensely in the design and planning of my trip, so I wanted to introduce myself and say THANK YOU to all that have contributed to Ballpark Chasers. I also wanted to share my trip with all of you and would love any suggestions/advice that you all have, as well.
I included my grant proposal, calendar, and itinerary. Enjoy!
