Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8 will have a booth at the May 9th Altoona Curve game. Hands-on activity with robots and STEM tools will engage the young and old alike.
Education Days at Peoples Natural Gas Field allow students and teachers the chance to put down their pencils and pick up their gloves to catch a fun-filled day with the Altoona Curve. There will be many community groups participating include Appalachia Intermediate Units 8 STEM Outreach Center. The STEM Outreach Center will provide a hands-on station to expose students and adults to robotics and engineering.
Another addition to this event is the Altoona Curve Educational Book which will provide teachers a bridge from the classroom to the ballpark as they relate players’ stats, teams’ geography, and other baseball-related subjects to their daily lessons. The books have lessons and activities for kids of all ages and will be available to participating classes for use throughout the spring semester.
