If you selected Cutting-Edge, what innovative ideas, approaches, or methodologies will your session introduce or explore?: Participants will "play" on an iPad (provided) to use a piano keyboard that has been adapted to teach math. They learn pop music songs as they solve math equations with the piano keyboard acting as the number line. This is a way to incorporate fine arts and math into the online classroom.
Abstract Description : Discover how Make Music Count transforms math learning by combining it with the joy of playing pop songs on the piano! This innovative approach keeps students engaged by connecting mathematical concepts with the music they love. What students won’t realize is that they are mastering essential math skills while enjoying the process of making music. This session integrates fine arts with math, using the piano as a number line to create an interactive learning experience. Join me for a fun, hands-on session where you’ll play along, explore the program, and see how music can be a powerful motivator for student success in math!
