Isn’t being in a silent classroom weird? I think so, that’s why I’m writing about listening to music while doing independent work.
I think it’s a good idea because listening to music would keep students more on task. They would be focused on music more than they would be on talking but they would still be able to get work done.
Other students also think should be able to listen while doing independent work. They think we should listen to music on our own electronic devices. The only problem about that is not everybody has an electronic device so I think we could also have music playing in the background on the smartboard that is suggested from the students.
The thing about that is that they don’t all want to listen to the same type of music. So it might get a bit chaotic if there was something people didn’t all like so they would all freak out. That is one of the only flaws about listening to music while working.
Scientists also think that it is a LOT more effective to listen to music while getting work done.
They think this because you don’t have to be worried about your surroundings and you're just in the zone listening to your music and just getting your work done. Scientists think it’s better to listen to more slow paced music music (instead of fast paced) because its more chill.
