Music In the elementary schools; save the music! help me please?

I am writing a platform essay about the need for music in our elementary schools. What are some suggestions for what I can propose to do about the problem of schools eliminating music in our schools? What are some reasons why you think music is an important thing to have in an elementary school? My essay is titled “Music Makes the Difference”

Well it makes kids have a place where they can grow and learn about classical music place where they can fit in.

it helps them learn to be in a group and also

take leadership

It gives opportunities: if a child does want to take music lessons and the parents can not afford it the school is giving that child an opportunity that he would of never of had if not for the school.

It will bring the class mates closer together because they will be like a family.

there you go some key points hope this helps you.

GOOD FOR YOU I AM SOO PROUD OF YOU AND I HOPE YOUR PARENTS /GUARDIAN IS ARE ALSO

Music programs have been relegated to “extra” status over the past many years. This is unfortunate because music is not just a luxury or a “fun” activity. Research has shown that children actually benefit (developmentally) from singing and (especially) playing musical games (for instance, London Bridge). If you want more information, check out the website below. I have been taking classes in Education Through Music for the past several years and find it makes a huge difference with my children.

You should look up some research that connects music to brain development, I believe there is quite a bit. My father is a retired Music teacher and I believe the things we did at school as well as at home related to music greatly benefited my sister and myself, as well as helped to make us positive well rounded people.

At any rate, look up some research to support your stance.

Good luck!

It’s said that students who do music perform better in mathematics than students who don’t (and math is such a fundamental subject – with standardized testing and in the workforce when they grow up).
