To create a major scale, you must use a series of whole and half steps. Whole steps are the movement of a note two pitches up. For example, a C to a D (C goes to C sharp which goes to D). Another example is D sharp to an F (D sharp to E to F). A half step is a movement of one pitch up. For example, a C to a C sharp. Another example would be a B to a C. Now just pick any note and to make the scale just follow the sequence of whole and half steps. Whole, Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Half For example, if you chose G, you would end up with: G, A, B, C, D, E, F sharp, G
