Listening to music and/or singing can be two really engaging activities for students.

Both listening to music and singing involve multiple senses, including auditory and kinesthetic. When students actively engage in singing, they use their voices and bodies, which can enhance their understanding of rhythm, melody, and lyrics.

This multisensory approach can promote a deeper and more holistic comprehension of musical concepts and can be particularly beneficial for kinesthetic learners.
