| Music Can Help Those with Dyslexia |
Do you know anyone who has dyslexia?
If so, music can help some of the skills associated with reading and
compre-hension! Fascinating! This is an excerpt from the Los Angeles
Times:
Research suggests that people with dyslexia, or difficulty reading, also fare
poorly on tests of auditory processing. Their timing is also poor. They have
difficulty filtering out unwanted background noise and "tuning in" to
sounds — such as a teacher's instruction — that they want to hear. Intensive
music instruction has been found to improve those skills, and with them, some
skills related to reading.
