Ethan and Ethel are at stake and learning

xThere is no doubt that music and songs is one of the best ways to teach children from information and new knowledge. In the past 25 years, has conducted several research studies to find out how music affects our brains and how we can use music to help you learn faster and more efficient. It was found that the brain is the most open and receptive to input information and when you are in a special case of relaxation.

This type of relaxation is not sleeping. It is a state of relaxed alertness – what we call consciousness is sometimes relaxed. For those who learn relaxation techniques like yoga, and I know that is the state in which our brain is in alpha.

He began to study memory and brain high again in 1950 by the Bulgarian psychiatrist and educator George Lozanov. After years of research and concluded that we all have the “optimal state of learning.” He said this happens: “When you synchronize smoothly and the heart rate, breathing rate and brain waves and relax the body but the mind is focused and ready to receive new information.”

Lozanov put their research into practice and achieved some amazing results, especially in learning a foreign language. Lozanov reported that helped students learn the word of Bulgaria 1200 in a single day, using his method.

Today we know that is easier for people to reach that ideal state for learning. Deep breathing is one of the first keys. Music is the second.

Music is played at different rates and different rates affect your mood is different, and therefore affects the functioning of our mind (which determines our actions).

Have you ever noticed how the big stores use music to influence the mood of customers within the hypothesis and to regulate the flow of human trafficking? During the high season, and play soft music to help clients relax so they can stay longer in stores, as a result of buying more. During peak hours when the stores and they need to trafficking to move faster so that more people can come in the stores and listen to loud music and fast.

Similarly, we can use music to our benefit to help our children in their learning and increase concentration.

If you want to put your child in the best state of mind when doing something or learn new skills and knowledge you can try to play music with gentle rhythms 50 to 70 minutes in the pattern.

The most popular music to reach this state comes from the Baroque school, and composers of the century and the beginning of 1817: Italian Arcangelo Corelli and Antonio Vivaldi Venetians, and Francois Coupertin the French and Germans, Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frederick Handel.

Some parts of our favorite music that my wife and I play at home for our children, Ethan and Ethel are at stake and learning:

- Vivaldi Four Seasons – one of the most popular pieces of Baroque music to help bridge the ideas of others, and the perception of the seasons

- The music of Handel Water – a very relaxing piece

Older people enjoy the memories that go back to them with some of the music that is more familiar from his past. This type of music that has the most difficult to find. There are fewer people can relate to them.

Adults like to sing along together. It can be configured in order to appreciate the old songs you know and love. They can share the memories with others about the songs.

It is not easy to find now, but they are there. You can get some tunes yesterday in CDs, DVDs, but are a bit hard to find. VHS even more difficult to locate. Almost none of the songs that adults know they are good for a group of singing, but depending on the audience of music hard and fast pace may not be appropriate. Can Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias makes it difficult for some older people to enjoy some songs faster and stronger, so you should take that into account when choosing your music.

The music is a good time. This can help achieve a pleasant childhood memories, family and the oldest landmarks in their lives. Love songs are always a good bet, there are also ethnic music.

Advertising

Other means unusual to learn German – as well as any language is through advertising. Why the ads? Because they are made by a professional marketing experts ad for one thing only: to convey the message clearly and quickly and you get in your memory and make you remember. This is exactly what you want when you learn the language. Teacher or author of the book does not come close to the effectiveness of communication professionals in the agencies. So while you may not want to be bothered by the ads in your language you should take a look at it in the language you want to learn. This will store some of the language itself in the brain immediately remain in memory for a long time. Mostly short, funny, easy to remember. In any case, it is the declaration is not it?

Book of Dave Schultz

“The songs from the cycling club” is the CD that accompanies “cycling club” Book of Dave Schultz. This music is a brave Americana at its core. It is mainly alcohol, and love the night and clear lines between the elements that are found in dark bars and inns.

David does not apologize for this article. A style of music that began perhaps with Woody Guthrie and Johnny Cash, but he continued with poets such as Bob Dylan and Steve Earle. It is clear that on the edge of a society that draws the attention of Dave Schultz.

For me, listening to this style of music is like reading history or fiction. That is, we hear the songs and the experience of culture is not for us.

For others, the fact can not exist through the resonance of words and melodies of this music. I chose to only offer my opinion about the music in this context and leave the moral judgments of men of my colleagues who feel comfortable in this area.

Similarly, the blues is a very good example to understand the part of the culture through music, I think. I started when I started again in the blues, began to appreciate music more, appreciate the culture that developed it. I dare say that most people do not want to live the life of Ranches, but many are derived from the blues in the early experiences of working in a farm in rural America through difficult times. However, this is not a form pure blues, this is not sharecropping.

These are the drinking songs. I have found drinking songs for many centuries. Irish, English and Germans have a long tradition of festive songs that drinking in general. Americans are also drinking songs that festive and light.

However, these songs are a little darker in some cases. Some of these songs are about the culture of anti-drugs and alcohol. We can discuss if it was perfect for the serious problem of drug abuse. However, based on the stories and the cold hard facts are difficult to ignore. Personally, I can appreciate the music as an art form without the need for direct experience. I’ve lost a lot of friends and family of drug use in recent years, so do not take this issue seriously. However, it is not for children. This music and entertainment for adults able to make their own decisions.

Now that I have exhausted all my warnings and disclaimers province, and I would like to say that I love the songs on this CD. Well-written and produced all. Dave Schultz is a very nice way to put interesting ideas in terms of simplistic which are universal. In my opinion, is the mark of true musical talent to create images that we see in our minds. While the great words of his songs, they also have not forgotten tunes and Dave singing with a loud voice! So, I think Dave Schultz deserves a place among the top ranks of the great singer songwriters. Also, I think it’s a very good fit Hank Purple members of this type of music, and to provide material for a nice and shows great skill and veteran interpreters.

January was a random pleasing rhythm creates some interesting images with the order of the great instruments. The song ends with a chorus that is interesting indeed. It starts with a good change in childhood and chains, he said very suitable. This is an important step for the last two choruses. In short, January is a song written very well, and with a lasting impact.

Mary Jane is a beautiful love song that has good pictures to use the excellent Dave and drafting letters. Centuries is a nice touch too. I love this song from the passion that peaks with repeating the line “Mary Jane” at the end of the song.

The island of boozed up all the nice sense of style and rhythm of rumba sketches Louis Montgomery style guitar. Writing and the message is excellent. It is celebratory toast a nice melody line against a type of music. The bridge also has a good change in the melody that moves in the second half and stop the flute. I like the end of jazz, a little discordant.

$ 200 is a great song about a girl down on their luck. The song creates the desired effect with the outline and slide guitar, giving the song of sugar. Line of communication in this very memorable song.

I love the guitar and the input device to the state of Virginia. Dialogue is the song with great chorus, do not forget. It is well known among the crowd theme bar night to night. It’s a song of unity and adherence to Rafik last night. Lyrics and music and this song is excellent.

The final toast to remember my name. Style oompah tuba with all the steel guitar creates a comic effect. I love the music and the words of this song. The line: “I do not know, but acknowledge that the Oldsmobile” is a classic line that will resonate well with fans of American music. Vivid images, and an appropriate method, and the excellent organization and production of this song make it an instant classic.

Dave Schultz is a singer-songwriter is excellent, with a trend towards the fertile soil in a bar artistic life. His band, Purple Hank, is a group of seasoned veterans of stage and studio. Otherwise, this should be a disk label that warns of listeners, “Do not try this at home!” Or “This is not country music, and his mother!”

Picture dictionaries

Dictionaries are the books that is very different from what you expect of the ordinary dictionary. It consists of different topics – such as “airport” or “in the supermarket.” Will show many of the photos – most of the things and situations that fit this specific topic, and remember the words below the picture in English and German – and many other languages ​​might. Maybe you think that this is only for children. But any adult can get such a great deal of information from the dictionary is. Makes learning fun, visual and context sensitive. Most people learn best visual way. Therefore, these topics mostly by and 2 will help you greatly as it summarizes the vocabulary most appropriate to the subject mixed with images that are fun to look at and browse. I myself use it regularly, and it just does not feel like you know – it’s relaxing as going through the magazine. But the amount of content that you picked up this way is amazing. Think of it: It actually looks like much more than learning pairs of printed words. The word is merely an abstraction of the real thing. Even when you learn the vocabulary you are dealing with two abstractions related to each other. However, we tend to think in pictures. Your mind to do two things: translate the image in your mind to the word in English, the English word to translate the German word you are looking for the husband to the word that saves. So when you look in the dictionary a picture you get the words directly associated with the images in your mind.

Sometimes a picture dictionary is the only way to explain something to non-native speakers, because in many cases we can not explain what we mean even in our own language – in particular certain types of food or technical terms.
