Sing a Song Please: Musical Contexts and Language Learning.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Howarth, Lisa M.; Conti-Ramsden, Gina – European Journal of Special Needs Education, 1987
Six language-impaired children, aged 4-7, were studied in two routinized contexts (a lesson without music and a singing session) and child-teacher talk was analyzed. Results showed that the addition of music to a routinized context has the potential to increase the language-impaired child's ability to interact non-verbally. (Author/JDD)
