It’s Finally Underway!!

  The 2009 season is underway with 1 in the books and number 2 in progress right now.  I celebrated “Opening Day 2009” with my first grade class just like I did last year.  All year I do baseball geography, but today, the whole day is devoted to baseball and the MLB so all of the curriculum for the day includes it as well, down to a fun dice game teaching the students about how to keep score and doing a little math as well.
