Most of the best lessons are created by teachers when there is an “aha moment” while walking, commuting to school, or any other time a teachers is thinking about the next lesson plan.

What is March Madness?

Before sharing a lesson with students, it is good for a teachers to have a basic understanding of what March Madness is. March Madness is a three week tournaments with 68 teams competing in a single elimination tournament to crown one champion. The beauty of the tournament is that it is so unpredictable. There are upsets, amazing team and individual performances, and last second heroics. For the sports fan, it is an incredible time of year.

Geography

March Madness lends itself to geography lessons for all grade levels. The tournament is divided into 4 different geographic regions. East, West, South, Midwest. Student could research the locations for each round.

In 2025 the cities will be Cleveland; Denver; Milwaukee; Lexington, Kentucky; Providence, Rhode Island; Wichita, Kansas; and Raleigh, North Carolina. The Final Four and the championship game will be held at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas. The “First Four” games will be played in Dayton, Ohio.

Students can measure the distance from the school to the game sites. Teachers also could analyze the locations and geography of the schools who are playing in the tournaments.

Math

Math teachers have a lot of fun with March Madness. At the elementary level, the teachers can simply create a worksheet using the numbers of the match-ups in each round. Replace the vs. with the skill the students are using. Addition (+), subtration (-), multiplication (x), and division (÷).

1 vs. 16

2 vs. 15

3 vs. 14

4 vs. 13

5 vs. 12

6 vs. 11

7 vs. 10

8 vs. 9

Word problems are also a great way to use March Madness. Teachers can create a few word problems each year and simply change the names of the teams to stay current.

Reading

Teachers can find readings about basketball or basketball players. There are many great upsets that a history teacher could share with class. One great example is the 1983 NC State upset of the University of Houston with the nickname of Phi Slamma Jamma.
