The Mechanics of Movement
With near-perfect pitches, swings, kicks, strokes and sprints, an athlete’s skills come down to countless hours of practice and a whole lot of science. Designed to excite learners by integrating STEM into their favorite activities, this program thrives on collaborative learning experiences. Each day, learners investigate the mechanics of different movements, connecting STEM concepts, like the forces of motion and the influence of gravity, through exercise and movement.
What does friction have to do with soccer? Why would a football player need to know about unbalanced forces? Answer these questions and so much more in this action-packed, reusable STEM program.
