- Book Synopsis
- The Music and Literacy Connection is the primary source of in-depth information detailing the relationship between music learning, literacy, and reading. This third edition delivers deeply researched information, provides classroom proven instructional approaches, and expands the value of music education to new heights. New to this edition: - Updated scientific research about music and the brain that advocate and justify how music enhances student literacy - More concise and contemporary verbiage and terminology - Expanded supportive tools for contemporary pedagogical practices, including Universal Design for Learning, the Science of Reading, and advocacy for educating the whole child Too often music classes at the elementary and secondary levels are shortened or eliminated in order for students to have more reading instruction, but that approach is often unsuccessful and potentially harmful. Music education not only reinforces critical sound-symbol relationships by sharpening the listening ear but also provides cultural and historical interdisciplinary perspectives. Music performance provides valuable social-emotional growth and skills that are important for the modern workplace.This edition is a must for reading in the content area courses designed for music educators, pedagogical "best practices" courses, professional development resources, book study, and curriculum directors.
