I have been extremely busy the past two weeks with fencing, moving cows around plus we brought a new bull home (as you can see below) so I have not had a chance to post this blog post. But here we are. 

I decided to use the AI tool Suno which is a music making tool. I gave it relatively the same prompt twice and it gave me 2 different songs. I was surprised that the songs were not the same. Although because both of them were different I got a good laugh. I used this prompt shown below 

Both the songs matched the prompt I gave. What made me laugh is that it actually made sense and sounded like something I would hear on the radio. 

Below are the links for both of the songs that were created.

The website was super easy to use and navigate. I had almost no trouble at all. 

One thing that was a little annoying was having to enter my phone number in order to “sign in” so I could listen to my song. 

I think this tool could be helpful in the classroom. While it would be fun for younger students to use I think this would only really work in a high school setting. Especially because of all the new strict phone rules we have. The other issue being is that students in elementary schools are not guaranteed to have a cell phone or even a phone number. 

I feel like this tool could be fun in almost any class. For math, the teacher could make a song for remembering formulas, or for physical education you could write a song for having perfect form while doing a certain exercise or playing a certain sport and this goes on and on. Students could even use this tool to create songs for what they need to remember or learn. That way they can write a helpful song to listen to that is tailored to them.
