enhances intelligence

AHHH, the next part of the lets play music mission statement. "enhances intelligence." extensive years of research indicate music is magical, especially when it comes to the effects of the brain development!" Music also promotes enhanced brain functioning. it promotes cognitive development as well as abstract thought. in mathematics, music plays an important role in enhancing the brain's hard wiring for spatial-temporal reasoning, or the ability to visualize and transform objects in space and time. when we divide and subdivide rhythm, this aides in the development of proportional math and fraction skills. music develops these spatial-temporal reasoning skills. knowledge of these skills are a prerequisite to math at higher levels. As children are introduced to complex musical concepts they not only develop high musical aptitudes, but high mental capacities as well. or in other words: MUSIC ENHANCES INTELLIGENCE!
