Music Lessons are a great way for kids to learn to focus and concentrate, as well as improve their grades at school and to stay in school.
Making music is fun.
There's nothing new about this assertion; people have known
it since before recorded history. Making music brings people
together, breaks down barriers and almost always leads to
a good time. Playing really well can make you feel like
you're on top of the world. And even if you're not brimming
with talent, doing your best and even messing up occasionally
is a lot more engaging than staring at the TV.
Making music is good for the brain.
Over the last decade, a series of new scientific studies
has demonstrated a link between active music making-not
just passive listening, but actually taking part-and increased
brainpower. Young kids who make music show improved spatial-temporal
reasoning, which is the foundation of later success in math
and science. And they actually get better grades than kids
who don't take music.
Making music is good for your body.
Did you know that making music is a proven stress reducer?
And stress on the body has been linked to the performance
of the immune system. Studies show that people who make
music have had higher levels of melatonin, a revitalized
natural production of Human Growth Hormone-even an increase
in the immune system's natural "cancer-killer"
cells.
Making music is good for the soul.
Everyone knows that music is beautiful. And beauty helps
your peace of mind. But did you know the benefits of music
on well-being have been scientifically measured? For example,
older people who make music show reduced levels of anxiety,
depression and loneliness. Among younger people, those who
make music together are less likely to use drugs or get
in other kinds of trouble.
Making music is good for the social life.
Does this one really need an explanation? No matter what
your age there are a variety of musical activities to help
you get started - preschool kids can enjoy the Sesame
Music Zone, teens can go all the way to The
MusicEdge, adults can become Weekend
Warriors and seniors can join a New
Horizons Band near them!
If you're not a musician already, you may feel a little
embarrassed to get started. But the next time you're at
a party and people start picking up instruments, you'll
feel embarrassed not to.
Fine Arts
The Illinois Learning Standards for Fine Arts were
developed using the National Standards for Arts Education,
1985 State Goals for Fine Arts, various other national and
state resources, and local standards contributed by team members.
Throughout time, the arts have been essential to human existence.
When people create in sounds, images, gestures and words,
they discover ways to shape and share their thoughts and feelings
with others. The arts enrich the quality of life. All students
deserve access to the arts through creation, performance and
study.
Young children "respond to gestures and movement before
they react to the spoken word. They understand and explore
sound before they learn to speak. They draw pictures before
they form letters. They dance and act out stories before they
learn to read" (Fowler, 1984). The fine arts—dance,
drama, music, and visual arts—are fundamental ways of
knowing and thinking. In addition to their intrinsic value,
the arts contribute to children's development. Recent research
shows that study in music improves test scores in spatial
temporal reasoning in young children (Rauscher, 1997).
Works of art are some of the highest achievements of civilization.
In school, students learn the language of the arts and how
to interpret visual images, sounds, movement and story. Because
the arts are both universal and culturally specific, they
are a powerful means of increasing international and intercultural
awareness. Through the arts, students gain a greater understanding
of their own cultural heritage, as well as a sense of the
larger world community.
The Illinois Learning Standards in the Fine Arts address
the language of the fine arts, sensory elements, organizational
principles and expressive qualities and how the arts are similar,
different or related to each other. Students also learn about
production and performance in the arts and the role of the
arts in civilization. When students study the arts they become
informed audience members and informed consumers of the popular
culture including electronic media. The standards in fine
arts define a comprehensive arts education and reflect a commitment
to a quality education for every Illinois school child.
Applications of Learning
Through Applications of Learning, students demonstrate and
deepen their understanding of basic knowledge and skills.
These applied learning skills cross academic disciplines and
reinforce the important learning of the disciplines. The ability
to use these skills will greatly influence students' success
in school, in the workplace and in the community.
Solving Problems
Recognize and investigate problems; formulate and propose
solutions supported by reason and evidence.
Problem solving is integral to the arts—providing students
the opportunity to innovate and seek original solutions to
open-ended problems. Multiple solutions are constructed using
various sensory modes, traditional and electronic media and
tools, and individual and group experiences. Students learn
the relationships between processes and end products; they
learn to communicate ideas, themes and meaning through solving
problems in their art work.
Communicating
Express and interpret information and ideas.
The arts are forms of communication extending beyond reading,
writing, listening and speaking. Communicating in the fine
arts means learning to translate ideas through dance, drama,
music and visual arts. Students also participate in the communication
process as receivers– observing, analyzing, evaluating,
critiquing and interacting.
Using Technology
Use appropriate instruments, electronic equipment, computers
and networks to access information, process ideas and communicate
results.
Computers, synthesizers, film and video provide opportunities
to create and record sound composition, animated images, montages
and other works. These experiences can lead to careers in
areas such as music, graphic arts, video and film production,
scene design and choreography. Technology (CD-ROM, slides,
film, video, laserdisk, on-line services) also can link the
classroom with the work of renowned artists and performers.
Working on Teams
Learn and contribute productively as individuals and as members
of groups.
Individual creativity and inspiration are at the heart of
the arts, but so are collaboration and group dynamics. Teamwork
activities include planning dramatic scenes, developing choreography,
creating group murals and performing music in ensembles. These
activities give students experience in communicating ideas,
considering the ideas of others and reaching consensus.
Making Connections
Recognize and apply connections of important information
and ideas within and among learning areas.
Through the arts, students observe how dance, drama, music
and visual art reflect history, society and everyday life.
They see links between the individual and society in the creation
and understanding of works of art. The arts relate to and
reinforce other learning areas—for example, dance and
the language arts (action relating to words and poetry), drama
and social science (theatre conveying history and culture),
music and mathematics (note duration expressed in fractions),
We will be providing music and have a booth at Bringing Families Back.
When: September 19th from 10am to 5pm & September 20th from 10am to 3pm
Where: Las Vegas Sports Park on 1400 North Rampart
An event focused primarily on bringing unity back into the
community. A multi-cultural event based in Las Vegas. Las Vegas holds
one of the most diverse group of people. With people traveling in and
out of Vegas everyday from different parts of the world. Las Vegas is a
unique city because of its big tourist industry. But with the economy
affecting people of all cultures, races, and financial backgrounds the
Bringing Families Back Fair stand by the mission to bring all these
people together as one to create a culture in Vegas that no one in the
rest of the world has ever seen, heard, or felt ever in their lives.
According to the Asian Journal, The BFBF has become one of the most
dynamic face-lifts Vegas has undergone. And the goal is still growing
as Vegas grows. Our hopes is to grow the BFBF to become a global event
around the world. We hope to shift societies thinking by bringing it
back down to one of the most basic aspect of life: Family
Whether it’s immediate family, a family of businesses, a family of
kids, a family of friends; regardless, we are all family. The world is
in tough economic times and the BFBF hopes to relieve that by providing
solutions to the world’s greatest problems of today. The BFBF is the
solution to our economies growth, our families growth, and our own
individual personal growth. We are linking businesses, non-profits,
authors and speakers, leaders in society, entertainment and art.
Through this we have a great chance on becoming the world’s greatest
resource.
Our mission is simple; to bring families back together.
Bringing Families Back Fair is a FREE
community event that is for All Causes. It is not one dimensional, it
is not for a specific non-profit organization, it is simply for the
WHOLE community to experience and enjoy. This event is designed to
instill more confidence within the consumers, to provide resourceful
information while delivering entertainment with ample good old-fashion
games, live music, inspirational & spiritual workshops, magic show,
exhilarating karate and gymnastic demonstrations, belly dancing, rock
climbing and so much more.
Delivering the resources to the community will help build confidence
within the consumers which will boost the economy because the consumers
will buy. And when more consumers are buying, this will help businesses
thrive. And when the economy is healthy, more people will donate to
non-profit organizations. And when the adults are balanced and
happy…the children will receive the love and attention that they truly
deserve and need.
