Have you already tried the getting started coding and programming music learning experience?

If not, do this first.

Try some of these creative ways of coding and programming music with Scratch or Sonic Pi:

Figuring it out is part of the experience!

  • Can you create a melody through code?
  • Can you create a harmony through code?
  • Can you create a beat through code?
  • Can you create music or sound that . . .
    • . . . is based off of a sample code in the Help section of Sonic Pi?
    • . . . reminds you of an old video game?
    • . . . is scary, funny, exciting, boring, silly, relaxing, or colorful?
    • . . . reminds you of a special event, story, or place?
    • . . . you would want to share with a friend or family member?
    • . . . you would want to rap, sing, or play over?
