Art & Music Studio
Recommended for students who have completed at least three pre-reader courses, Art and Music Studio offers a set of creative sandbox environments where students generate their own geometric art and compose music. To use Art and Music Studio in your classroom, you must download the Tynker Junior app from the App Store. The Tynker Junior app offers a collection of courses specifically designed for young children (ages 4-7) who are still learning how to read.In Art and Music Studio, students explore three art-based and two music-based sandboxes. In Wild Tracks, they use directional blocks and create patterns using animal tracks. They use Seabed Scribbler to draw geometric patterns on the seabed using a Turtle graphics-style interface. In Starfish Spirals, they use a pre-built mathematical function library to draw spirographs of different shapes, sizes and colors. In Octodrum, they program a repeating drum sequence. In Pocket Band, they program musical instruments with sequences to create their own ensemble and composition.Tynker Junior uses word-free picture-based block programming with fun characters to help kids develop animations, pursue adventures and solve puzzles and challenges. This enables young children—who have limited motor skills and are still developing hand-eye coordination—to learn to code using big blocks, pictures, voiceovers and tap-tap-tap interactions, without words or drag-and-drop or any other actions they may find too tedious or overwhelming. Tynker SmartPass enables younger students to sign in by simply scanning a code, without the need to remember any usernames or passwords.Art and Music Studio is only available on iPads and iPhones. Students can access the course using the Tynker Junior app on their iPad devices. These courses are not available on Android or via the browser at tynker.com.
