Do you take music and art classes? These classes, which are part of a group of classes often known as arts education, allow students to learn new things in a 1. c
creative
way.
Many people believe music and art classes are important to students. However, some people believe art and music classes matter 2. l
less
than other classes. Different opinions about art and music can 3. i
influence
arts education, so it's important to understand these points of view.
Most people believe music and art classes should be part of a student's education. They can give students 4. r
reasons
to enjoy school if they don't like other subjects. Children who take music classes have higher math and English test scores than those who don't, and music has been shown to help with language 5. d
development
and memory.
Some people argue(争论) that art and music classes 6. r
require
too much money for things such as art supplies and instruments. They believe that money should be spent on things such as
new science or math books, which are often seen as more useful for 7. f
future
jobs.
Although some people might argue about how much art and music classes matter compared to other subjects, it is clear that they do matter. Students who take these classes generally do 8. b
better
in school and are more likely to stay in school. In this way, art and music classes can be a path to 9. s
success
for some students.
Studies show some ways art and music classes matter to students. However, there are some ways that can't be 10. s
shown
. Art and music classes help students see the world in new ways.
