WHAT?: Music is when you get to sing, make beats, and rhythms. It is the sounds produced by singers or musical instruments. I believe that integrating music in the classroom is very important because I think that it is something very fun and enjoyable for the students in the classroom. In the text book it says that integrating music is very correlated with academic performance and character traits. It boosts character traits which results in higher test scores. I know that all of us, as teachers, are interested in having our students excel academically especially with test scores.
SO WHAT?: I believe that as a teacher we should make learning as enjoyable as possible for our students. If we make it fun for them they will be willing to learn. I think that integrating music with lessons in the classroom it will help the children comprehend and keep the information longer. Children are able to remember things better if they are able to correlate it with something fun and enjoyable to them. I want to make my classroom enjoyable and fun for my students to help them excel academically.
NOW WHAT?: I think that is is very important as a future teacher to always be looking for new, creative ideas to use in the classroom. There are many, many ideas out there in the world on how to use music in the classroom. In class last week we learned many fun ideas to help the children learn more. I also believe that if I am going to teach and integrate music in my classroom I need to be very familiar with music myself. I need to be able to have many ideas to use for my students that way I am not always using the same things because the students will get bored of that. I am so excited to learn a lot of ideas on how to integrate music into my classroom not only to make my classroom fun, but to help my students excel academically.
