Musical S.T.E.M.

Overview

This is a wonderful course that relates piano to science, technology, engineering and math and includes easy-to-make at-home science experiments that relate to musical concepts.

Level Required

It is preferred that students can read on the staff for this course but not required. Thus, all levels welcome.

Materials

Upon enrollment, students will receive a worksheet for each session that they have signed up for as well as a list of supplies which mostly consist of common household items such as water, mixing bowls, plastic wrap, string, rubber bands, etc. Students are also not required to perform the experiments as I will also be doing them so they can follow along and/or watch. They should have access to their piano or keyboard.
