Create a Song in Google’s Music Lab!

Tech + Music = Google’s Music Lab!

Be sure to check out Google’s Music Lab and their latest addition, Song Maker!

This brief video (1:37) shares an into to Song Maker and how easy it is to get started!  Without logging in or creating any accounts, anyone can create music!  It can be done on just about any device and is pretty cool (especially as a stress-free, creative activity in the afternoon after morning SBAC testing)!  Students are given the option to save their work, but it automatically saves to a “goo.gl” URL, which isn’t accessible in the district (for security reasons).  So, just have fun in the moment and don’t worry about saving anything.  Try it!
