Benefits of music in the classroom

Music has a multitude of benefits, especially in motor and intellectual development from a very early age. It is for this reason that at Casvi International American School we promote musical and artistic creativity in the classroom. So, what kind of activities do we do to promote music? With what tools?

With this type of activities, it is easier to detect the talent of our students and to promote it. Moreover, we have taken a series of initiatives such as:

-Increase in the number of hours of music classes.

–Specialist teachers teach music.

-The subject is taught from Pre-Kinder 1. With only three years old, Casvi’s students start to work on their musical creativity.

-A wide variety of instruments are used for learning music: pianos, drums, bass, guitars, ukulele, xylophones, and small percussion.

-Classes are practical.

-We constantly use New technologies for the development of innovative creative projects.
