Music helps students learn
Is music the key to helping students learn but also have fun at school? or is it bad for students as they may not get work done?. All students are different, we all have our different ways that we can learn the best and music is one of them,
Just like me music is they key for me to work faster get motivated to learn and get my work to high standards but every student should get their work done anyway with or without music. The idea of music while working gets students excited for school knowing that they get to listen to their favourite but appropriate tunes during class time.
As a teacher you want to ensure that your students get their work done but to a very high standard, what I think is that there are students who get their work done faster without music but some don’t and need a bit of music to work faster and more efficient so you want to think about it both ways.
A class playlist is something that definitely is worth a think about as the class will be so much more motivated to learn, they will surely appreciate a playlist that has all of the class’ favourite tunes you might even like to have one each day of the week to play. Everyone may not have headphones to use so it’ll be hard for others to work who don’t want to listen to music that’s another problem that will occur when most students would like to listen to music beside maybe one or two.
Remember to think about students who are determined to learn but can’t learn because they have a specific way of learning which can be music in some cases, it’s really nice to help other students so that they are comfortable to learn in the classroom and it’ll definitely improve the thinking and motivation of learning in students in our class and maybe all over New Zealand.
