Teaching Music in Elementary School

All children have the ability to be successful with music. Children naturally begin to sing before speech development. However, research has shown that music potential will decline if children are not exposed to quality musical experiences between birth and age eight. This is why elementary school children should be given a chance to have their own musical elective, such as band, orchestra, and choir. Most children are offered choir, art, or athletics in elementary school. And most children in elementary school are offered a music class twice a week, singing songs and such. But I think that elementary school students should be given a chance to play a variety of instruments. Standard Texas instrumentation is to learn about the string family and learn to play the recorder. More options should be offered.

In FBISD, music instruction every day such as choir, band, and orchestra in middle school through high school and college. Children would learn better, and be much better musicians to inspire the world if they were taught at that point when they are more impressible.

And then. I get stuck. I can't think of anything else to write. I need to get in contact with my elementary school teacher and interview her or something. I need help. :(
