The Amazin’ Mets Foundation and Learn Fresh have teamed up to present Math Hits, a program designed to build on students’ love of baseball and broaden their math and STEM-related skills.
Students from New York City public schools and afterschool programs take part in a variety of activities that teach children preparation tips for success in school and in their future careers, as well as an interactive fantasy baseball tournament with important math principles, which enhances students’ foundational math skills.
Math Hits encourages and rewards sportsmanship – promoting fairness, respecting opponents, and staying positive win or lose – resulting in a comprehensive experience for all.
