Full STEAM Ahead - Resources for online learning in K-12

In Spring 2020, MIT launched Full STEAM Ahead - a free online source of activities, videos, and readings for fun, hands-on STEAM learning at home. For Fall 2020, Full STEAM Ahead piloted a remote extracurricular club for 700 students from Spain and Massachusetts exploring all the topics from their Spring website. 

We are proud to contribute music-based activities to the FSA website, as well two weeks of remote music-making curriculum that teachers, parents, or out-of-school time programs can use to lead a group of students.
