HomeWorkshops 5 | Marvellous Maths | Out of the Ark Music

There is strong evidence to show the positive impact that active engagement with music can have on spatial reasoning. There also seems to be a strong relation between visuospatial reasoning and mathematical abilities. Research carried out by Out of the Ark Music (A Singing School Is A Successful School – 2017) showed a statistically significant difference in the percentage of correct mathematical responses following the implementation of the programme.

This online workshop, delivered via Zoom, is aimed at both specialist and non-specialist musicians, and is an essential guide to using music and singing to develop spatial reasoning and maths when teaching children aged 3 – 7.
