MUSIC EDUCATION
Music education is a field of practice associated with the teaching and learning of music. Music education touches on all learning domains, including cognitive and motor skills development. The incorporation of music training from preschool through college is common in most nations because involvement in music is considered a fundamental component of human culture and behavior.
Some of the benefits of music education programs in schools include:
Cognitive and motor skills development
Helping boost self-esteem
Helps with auditory development and improves listening skills
Nurturing creativity
Helping students develop excellent memory skills
Helping students learn to collaborate and work in teams
Allowing students to experience different cultures
Helps develop discipline
Improves language skills
Develops leadership skills
Lamb Management & Consulting advocates for the preservation of music education programs in all private and public schools at both the state and federal level. We focus on key legislative aspects like:
Music curriculums - this is legislation that defines what should be taught in music programs while ensuring these curriculums align with state and national standards.
Funding - financial support that can be used for purchasing equipment/instruments, hiring certified music educators, and professional development.
Student impact and benefits of having a music program as part of a well-rounded education.
In addition, we are advocates for music programs in schools that not only provide a well-rounded general music curriculum that cultivates musical abilities and enhances other academic and personal skills, but programs that go beyond that to develop young children into future music creators.
Lamb Management & Consulting supports the advancement of music education programs in all public and private schools.
