Girl Coders create Music!

What a perfect way to start off the Hour of Code week with a story about dedicated coders at Belvidere! The all girls coding club is under way and they are learning the basics behind coding and why it is important.  The club consists of girls from Belvidere in graders 3-5 and they meet every other week to build up their coding skills.

They recently learned how to create algorithms to compose their very own songs.  This was all done with OSMO Coding Jam.  The girls went through a tutorial and learned how to code with different sound effects, drums, melody, and bass. Check out an example of one of the first coded songs!
These girls are learning that computer science is a path they can take and they can make a career out of it! That they can solve problems, and create new things just by knowing how to code.  They are the first in the district to try out our new OSMO Coding kit! 

Listen to more of their creations!
