At Science of Sport, we know that educators are at the heart of inspiring students to learn and grow. That’s why we’ve created the Teacher Portal, a dedicated resource designed to support you in bringing STEM to life through sports. This portal provides easy access to lesson plans, worksheets, and hands-on activities that seamlessly integrate math and science into your curriculum using real-world sports examples.
The Teacher Portal is your go-to resource for engaging, standards-aligned STEM content. Here’s what you’ll have access to:
Ready-to-Use Lesson Plans: Clear, structured lessons that connect STEM concepts to sports, making learning more relevant and exciting for your students.
Downloadable Worksheets: Printable materials to reinforce key STEM skills through interactive activities.
Hands-On Activity Guides: Step-by-step instructions for implementing experiments and exercises that bring STEM to life in your classroom.
Sports-Based STEM Curriculum: A structured approach to teaching math and science using real-world sports applications.
The Phoenix Suns/Phoenix Mercury Foundation STEM Program, powered by Honeywell, provides direct support to teachers and students through engaging, hands-on learning activities that incorporate examples from basketball. These activities emphasize STEM education, socio-emotional learning, and experiential instruction. Students use a variety of materials and sports equipment to complete structured tasks and worksheets.
By harnessing the power of basketball and the Phoenix Suns, we are committed to inspiring and empowering our communities through education.
