7th Graders Design Video Games with Original Music

Ani Bermudez
In music class this month, Moravian Academy's seventh graders have taken on an exciting project: designing their own video games, complete with original music compositions. This innovative initiative is sparking creativity and curiosity, and it's been truly inspiring to witness the students' progress.

Highlights of the project include:
  • Students working together to develop unique game concepts.
  • Bringing their ideas to life through various mediums such as drawings, puppet shows, and live-action performances.
  • A strong focus on music creation, with students composing original soundtracks to enhance their games.
The students' enthusiasm and engagement throughout the project have been remarkable. They're asking insightful questions and showcasing their creativity in fresh and exciting ways.

Beyond the creative aspects, this project is helping students develop valuable life skills:
  • Teamwork: Collaborating to bring their imaginative visions to life.
  • Time management: Managing deadlines and milestones as they work toward completing their projects.
  • Problem-solving: Tackling challenges in both game design and music composition.
This experience may even ignite a long-term passion for game design, music composition, or related creative fields for some of the students, offering a glimpse into their potential futures.
