OK Go Music & STEM lessons

There are a bunch of lessons that tie into OK Go videos - many STEM related and some are music related. Could be great for the Be Brave Board!
https://okgosandbox.org/

Here's some more information from the Scout Report:
From song and dance to STEAM and dance, Ok Go Sandbox reminds users that learning can, and should, be fun. Using music videos from the group Ok Go as a launching point, the site provides "an online resource for educators," with "guided inquiry challenges allowing students to explore various STEAM concepts." Under the Lessons tab, readers will find six educational units. Each curriculum page features an embedded music video and corresponding lesson plan (or plans, in some cases). For example, Upside Down and Inside Out, a video exploring physics and gravity, provides math, science, and art lesson plans. Lessons are labeled with the appropriate grade level and common core state standards. In addition to the educational materials, the site has some fun bonus features. On the More page readers will find behind-the-scenes content from Ok Go, and the Ask Ok Go tab features a series of "question and answer" style videos with the group. Ok Go Sandbox is sponsored by Google, Morton Salt, and Cognizant.--
