The Atlantic Coast Conference in partnership with Guilford County teachers have developed these units for grades K–8. While the lesson plans are based on ACC Women’s Basketball and are meant to can be taught within the context of the tournament, their focus on math, science, social studies, language arts, character development, and physical education make them useful and interesting to students any time of the school year. The curriculum guide has been updated this year with new lessons in science, social studies, and English language arts.
This year (2010) the ACC Women’s Basketball Tournament will be held March 4–7. School Day Games are scheduled for March 4th and 5th at 11:00 a.m.
