Why Music Is Essential For Kids?
Music learning supports the process from verbal language to reading,
writing and understanding language. It is for this reason research
has found that musically trained children perform better in
standardised tests on language; acquire language including words,
syntax and prosody more effectively and earlier; and, utilise
language more effectively.
Music learning encourages the
development of working memory, particularly auditory working memory.
This development is thought to be one of the mechanisms that assists
students in processing verbal information quickly and without the
need for repetition, remembering multi-step processes and
independently managing busy schedules. The development of effective
working memory is thought to contribute to the effective creation,
storage and retrieval of other types of memories.
