Spot dazzling dragonflies, marvel at shimmering leaf canopies, and uncover the wonders of the outdoors! This week in Mizzen’s Greatest Hits, we’re celebrating our connection to nature with Eco-Explorations by City Parks Foundation.
Designed to be adaptable for any season, this vibrant five-part series empowers youth grades 6-8 to become leaders and stewards of their local environments, from parks and playgrounds to forests and riverbanks.
Building on the success of City Parks Foundation’s award-winning Green Girls program, the Eco-Explorations series emphasizes teamwork and social-emotional learning while fostering deep, meaningful connections to the natural world. Young learners will explore real-world science, problem-solve, and take environmental action.
The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, and the buzz of excitement are in the air! As the end of the year approaches, we’re dropping the needle on Mizzen’s Greatest Hits, a curated compilation of first-rate lessons from our trusted partners across the arts, literacy, and STEM. To kick off the compilation, we’re throwing the opening pitch with MLB Players STEM League by Learn Fresh!
Get ready to experience the electrifying world of Major League Baseball like never before. Developed in partnership with the MLB Players Trust, the MLB Players STEM League is an interactive, sports-based learning experience for youth that connects math and strategy through the game of baseball.
Over eight energetic lessons, students become players, managers, and analysts, using real MLB stats to draft teams and make strategic decisions. Weaving core math concepts into gameplay while fostering teamwork and resilience, MLB Players STEM League builds skills that last a lifetime.
