  • North American Geography Lesson 4: Jack Kramer Unit Overview: As
    North American Geography Lesson 4: Jack Kramer Unit Overview: As students work through the activities in this unit they will be introduced to the United States in general, different regions of the United States, map symbols, Hall of Famer Jack Kramer, and his Barnstorming Tour of the 1950s. They will explore, through varied learning experiences, the significance of Kramer’s tour to the game of tennis while learning about different parts of the country. The activities that accompany this unit are geared towards the students’ multiple intelligences and will provide academic challenges at multiple levels of cognitive complexity while satisfying the goal of working towards mastery of grade appropriate common core standards of Literacy, Geography, and Mathematics. Objectives: Students will be able to- • Gain background knowledge through vocabulary activities and comprehension activities (such as guided questioning and using appropriate graphic organizers) the geography of the United States and its regions, along with what it was like in the 1950s. • Form an understanding of the contribution that Jack Kramer made to the sport of tennis. • Demonstrate what they have learned about the geography of the United States, map skills, Jack Kramer and his significance to the game of tennis, and his place in history by successfully completing guided questioning activities, group organizers, and by taking part in meaningful classroom discussions. Common Core Standards: CCSS.ELA – Literacy RI 4.3 - Explain events, procedures, ideas, or concepts in a historical, scientific, or technical text, including what happened and why, based on specific information in the text. CCSS.ELA – Literacy RI 4.7 - Interpret information presented visually, orally, or quantitatively (e.g., in charts, graphs, diagrams, time lines, animations, or interactive elements on Web pages) and explain how the information contributes to an understanding of the text in which it appears.

The Grand Slam Tennis Program allows you to see how recent grand slam tennis champions would fair against champions from the past. You can choose from more than 90 former men's grand slam champions and more than 80 former Women's Champions. In addition, you can choose to play the tennis match at the Australian Open, U.S. Open, Wimbledon, or French Open. International tennis matches can also be played, with the option of choosing from many countries around the world. The program is perfect for simulating individual match ups or holding an entire tournament. This is not video graphic game. It is a statistical game based on each former tennis player’s historical success in playing major grand slam singles events. While some players have a higher probability of success, their performance in any particular tournament is still subject to the laws of random probability. For example, a player who has had major success in the French Open is likely to do well in the French Open, but could still lose to a player who has had less historical success in the French Open.

    Gussie Moran, Tennis Star, Dies at 89 - NYTimes.com 1/24/13 12:48 PM Gussie Moran, a Tennis Star Who Wore a Daring Wimbledon Outfit, Dies at 89 Gussie Moran, who as a ranked American tennis player in 1949 caused an international stir and gained worldwide fame for competing at Wimbledon while wearing a short skirt and lace-trimmed underwear, died on Wednesday at her home in Los Angeles. She was 89. She had recently been hospitalized with cancer, Jack Neworth, a tennis writer and friend, said. Moran’s daring outfit worn in a bastion of English propriety won her more renown than her tennis playing, though she was ranked as high as No. 4 in the United States, won the United States women’s indoor championship in 1949 and reached the quarterfinals that year at Wimbledon. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/01/19/sports/tennis/gussie-moran-tennis-star-dies-at-89.html?_r=0 Page 1 of 6 Gussie Moran, Tennis Star, Dies at 89 - NYTimes.com 1/24/13 12:48 PM By the end of her life she had come to know hardship — bouncing from job to job, living in near squalor, telling of abortions and rape. At her death she lived in a small apart- ment. But for a time, more than half a century ago, she was a household name around the world. A racehorse, an airplane and a sauce were named after her. Moran, who was 25 at the time, arrived in London for Wimbledon in June 1949 with a new outfit in mind, having already reached out to the British designer Teddy Tinling to create one.

This research addressed the issue of women tennis players’ marginalisation through a biographical analysis of the women’s amateur circuit with particular emphasis on the previously untold story of four British tennis players: Mrs. Phyllis King (née Mudford, who competed at the Wimbledon Championships 1928-1953), Mrs. Joan Hughesman (née Curry, Wimbledon 1939-1960), Mrs. Joy Michelle (née Hibbert, Wimbledon 1947- 1957), Mrs.
