;Brief explanation: We have been discussing the implications of removing the duo-tone restriction on Sugar icons, allowing for full-color icons. We can likely use badges to compensate for any functionality we'd lose. (See [https://medium.com/@sidhant/designing-interfaces-for-education-systems-with-sugar-labs-rethinking-icons-on-sugar-614120e7ec6f] as one example of how we might proceed.). Like if an activity has not closed yet so it will be shown through a badge appearing on an icon. Repo can be found here https://github.com/sugarlabs/sugar-toolkit-gtk3/tree/master/src/sugar3

;Brief explanation: [https://walterbender.github.io/musicblocks/ Music Blocks] has a good enough UI, but there are open issues remaining and it would be nice if a person with a high level of understanding of graphics and style were to proposal and implement changes that unify the entire look and feel of Music Blocks.

;Brief explanation: There are features in [https://github.com/walterbender/musicblocks/tree/master/guide#3213-setting-voice-and-keys MB for exploring modes/scales/keys which can are referenced in the guide]. However, we suspect that there are better ways to organize keys. This project would be to reimagine how MB organizes pitches. We recommend that you read the discussions that have taken place already on GitHub as well as research how keys work as well as [https://owncloud.libretools.com/index.php/s/2GtAhkvQpt3fYfF scholarly articles about temperament, scales, and tuning]. Keep in mind that we would like to prepare for the possibility of chromatic pitch spaces that are not 12--for example, a chroma of 5 or 7 or 13, etc. What features and widgets are needed?

;Brief explanation: Music Blocks does not yet have a robust set of tools to help the user analyze their music (e.g. highest pitch, lowest pitch, pitches used, keys, musical form, intervals etc.). Additionally, users would very much benefit from features to help them visualize the way their music is constructed. Perhaps we could even create some features to help the user choose a style of music and the analysis highlights movements that violate that style's particular rules.

;Brief explanation: Sugarizer is a large collection of many Activities suitable for general audiences on many devices. The goal of this project is to package a subset of the Sugarizer Activities (Maximum of 5) for children 4-7 (grades Pre-K-2) with a young child-friendly UI/UX experience suitable devices. Many of the graphics in the interfaces will be re-designed to accommodate non-readers and very young children who are still developing their fine motor skills. One new Activity for intuitive math concepts will also be developed similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuisenaire_rods Cuisenaire Rods]. Sugarizer1° will be non-language dependent so translations will not be needed.
