Language, Music, Evolution, Reading
The Science of Why Using Music to Teach Children Works.
- Sync Sense
- Native languages influence the way people organize and group non-language sounds into rhythms.
- Social Rhythm Researchers
- Rhythmic patterns underlie the human language. Musical Roots lie in the human voice. READING AND RHYMING GAMES are good. The better infants are at distinguishing the different parts of words, the better they will be later using more complex language, researchers say.

How does the brain work? Singing Familiar Songs is Found to Use Spatial Abilities
- Evolution of Speech is associated with the auditory sense, and is not closely tied to the world of objects or other people. It is the most widely and democratically shared across humans, and is the most thoroughly studied intelligence. The origin of language. Communication evolved hand-in-hand with social bonding.
"The work tells us that communication is right there at the base of social behaviour and that having a larger vocal repertoire allows you to have a more complex social set up," says Karen McComb, at the University of Sussex, UK.

connections between Speech and Song
- Singing Familiar Songs is Found to Use Spatial Abilities in the brain. By 6 months of age, infants develop a map in the auditory cortex of the phonetic sounds in the native language their mother or caretaker speaks. Depending on the language they either will or will not develop perfect pitch.

Research Shows It takes no musical training to recognize a wrong note... but why is that so? New research shows that sensitivity to music is a natural function of the human brain. NPR's Richard Knox reports. 12/28/2002
