Music Improves Reading Skills
Do you know anyone who has Dyslexia?  If so, music can help some of the skills associated with reading and comprehension!  Fascinating!  This is an excerpt from the Los Angeles Times.​

Reading: 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.
