Learning is a biological process.It happens in your brain.
The Biology of Learning

Musical Thinking is a cognitive empowerment strategy utilizing music, movement and rhythm that teaches children how they think and learn helping them gain better control over their approach to daily
tasks and activities related to learning and behavior.

Movement precedes cognition.Rhythm is a foundational component to perceiving language, reading and math.Deficits in fine and gross motor control, rhythm, and timing have been consistently reported in the literature across several diagnostic groups including ADHD, developmental dyslexia, reading, math and speech-language deficits. Movement paired with increasingly complex cognition is likely to improve executive functions.

Musical Thinking
“Teaching children HOW they think,
not simply what to think.”
![Page 21: 20 Activities To Improve Executive Function and Social Emotional Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070513/588866071a28abad0d8b5d2f/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
When we make the application of executive functions to learning transparent and easily understood, children gain better control over what was previously mysterious to them, that is, the process of thinking and learning.
Transparency

The #1 thing we need to do to learn is put things into our brains then take them out again, over and over.
Slow-Mo – We encode in slow notes.Quick Rick – We retrieve in quick notes.
Learning + Memory
![Page 24: 20 Activities To Improve Executive Function and Social Emotional Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070513/588866071a28abad0d8b5d2f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Measures of music have an interesting correlation to cognitive processing. In 4/4 time, there are four beats to a measure.Each beat can help children experience a part of a thought, action or piece of educational content. Since we learn by understanding the sequences of content, knowledge or actions, we are able to teach children better executive function skills by associating content or knowledge with each beat.
What’s In a Measure?

Learning (memory, attention, inhibition)SEL (communication, self-awareness,self-compassion)Mastery (confidence, increased motivation, decreased anxiety/stress)
