00:05 When it comes to our school age children,
00:07 we are looking for ways to help them achieve 00:09 academic success, social ease, and self-confidence. 00:13 Well, look no further than music. 00:15 There's no doubt of correlation between music and success. 00:18 Active musicians in Elementary and High School statistically 00:22 tend to be the most highly motivated, well-adjusted and 00:25 socially appreciated individuals. 00:27 There are even studies that look to determine which type 00:30 of music, involvement will most benefit your child. 00:33 Should they play a band instrument, join the choir, 00:36 the orchestra? I would suggest that you get your child 00:39 into piano lessons at some point in their life 00:42 better to do this earlier than later. 00:44 Somehow the kids who took piano early in life, 00:47 tended to be the musicians who were in more music groups, 00:50 sports groups, had higher academic achievements 00:53 and higher ACT, SAT scores than the musician who only 00:57 played a band or an orchestra instrument or the ones that sang. 01:01 Most of the students tested and stopped playing the piano 01:04 by high school age, but that musical background was the 01:07 common thread in the cream of the crop. |
