Cross Curricular: Science Gets Fruity

Produced by Teachers TV, this video shows how science and musical theatre can be mixed.

Students are inspired by visits from a physicist, a botanist, and a musician. The cross curricular day for Year Seven begins with an exploration of the physics of sound through drama.

Next, the students get the chance to make music with a range of unfamiliar percussion instruments.

Finally they focus on the science of plants before being set the challenge of making their own musical instruments out of fruit and vegetables.
