This blog is all about Yankees!!! Love them or hate them, they are a great team! The Yankees have a lot to offer to education. In discussing player salaries, student can learn what it looks like to see and how it feels to write figures such as $33,000,000.00 or $22,600,000.00. They can also learn about greater than and less than by comparing the win/loss record - 59(W) 34(L)or the win/loss record of a pitcher such as Andy Pettitte 11(W) 2(L).

KC /Yankees Game
Well the Yankees win again!!! Guess who hit a homer??? You know it, Derek Jeter (#2 for all those you did not know)! Now as for a counting lesson to tie in education and Yankees baseball, you could have your students count out ten blue counters for the Yankees and four white counters for the Royals and then ask them which is greater. GO YANKEES!!!!
