Study Finds Link Between Music and Preschoolers Reading Readiness
Universitu at Buffalo, January 23, 2013
New research from the University at Buffalo Graduate School of Education shows a link between preschool music activities and the development of reading and writing skills in children.
Funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and published in the Bulletin for the Council of Research in Music Education, the two-year study examined the impact of "musically trained" early childhood teachers on the music and emergent reading and writing achievements of preschool children.
