 Materials Needed

3 people in same kind of math

Something to play music in

A country song- Our Song by Taylor Swift

A classical song-Mozart

An R&B song- Love Lockdown by Kanye West

4 CBMs (math worksheet)

 Procedures

1. First have 3 people listen to "Our Song" by Taylor Swift for 2 minutes.

2. Next give each of them a CBM paper; right after listening to the song and let them complete it. (CBMs are a worksheet with math problems on it that are similar, done in 2 minutes. You give them the CBM face down and tell them," when I say go flip over the paper and do as much problems as you can go left to right if you skip a problem you stop grading. Go." After 2 minutes you say," stop", and then collect their paper from them. You check their answers and mark them off if their wrong. Each problem is worth a certain amount or a score or something like that. You add all the right answers scores and then come up with the whole papers score. If the score is over 96 then you pass.)

3. After grading the test put them to the side to do the other test.

4. Then complete the steps again but with the song Love Lockdown by Kanye West but with a different similar CBM.

5. Then again but with a Mozart song but with a different similar CBM.

6. Then one more time but with no music at all with a different similar CBM.

7. Then you compare the math scores for each song that was listened to and the one test with no music.

8. Find the highest math scores for what song that was played and the test with no music and then you got your answer.

Some people believe that music can affect your math scores. People did different tests to see if it was true.When people did the test they usally came up  with the answer, classical or mozart music helps with math scores.After someone listens to it for a while, that person will get smarter for a while, but the effect will last only for a short period of time. People think there's some kind of connection between the brain and the music. This is not fully proven yet though. The experiments need different types of music for the test subjects to listen to. First let the people listen to one of the types of music for a while. Next give a math test.Do this to all the types of music.Then compare the math scores and see which one is the highest score. Also, make sure the math test are similar and all the music is played for the same amount of time. The main answer to all the test is Mozart music.This is called the " Mozart Effect".This music scored higher on an I.Q. test then listening to no music or any other music.When people listen to this music people found out that some brain parts are active while listening to this music. Early childhood exposure to this music has a beneficial effect on mental development.With some people listening to it, it boosted their scores higher.This music shows more improvement in math then any other subject. People believe there's a connection between peoples brains and music.The structure of the human brain and the music must have some kind of relationship. Also lots of studies found a connection between music and math. When you listen to the music every note is a different sound doing something to your brain, so it's like a different note does something to your brain by the way it's played.But it's hard for people to know what causes what. As a result music can affect math scores probably.By listening to music scores for math test can go up.It would probably go up by listening to Mozart.Mozart would, maybe make people a lot smarter. People still need to find the conection between the brain and music.Also, the conection between math and music.Music could or may not improve math scores, but probably would.
