Live from the Opera House Traverse City

Our guest today, Doug Mirabelli, was a catcher for the Boston Red Sox. He reads us a book about Moe Berg, a Jewish baseball player from the 1930s, who traded in his glove to become a spy during World War II. For our activity, Heidi Kay, a teacher from Eastern Elementary School, visits the Opera House to help us with the Build a Lever Challenge.

    Some of the first stories people told were about heroes, and they're still among the most popular stories today. In this video series, we're going to be creating some of those stories about heroes, put them up against hero-sized problems, and help them come up with solutions that amaze us! In this episode, we talk about what a hero is! Each episode of SPTV includes one of these educational lessons. Catch full episodes of Story Pirates on the Michigan Learning Channel.
