This article gives the other side of the picture which is that the Bible is schools would limit the religious options of the students experiencing the class or course.

This document was very straight forward in the belief that the Bible is the most impacting book ever written to the day. This article also argues the points that the Bible should be taught in schools today as well as how they can be taught in schools legally. While this document describes the ways the Bible can be taught in schools it also hints at the fact that it not only can be taught but it should be taught.

In this article, the authors hypothesis that music perception skills are linked to early reading skills in children. Using a test group of 100 4- and 5-year-olds, they discovered that while there were differences in the age groups that overall their hypothesis was well supported. Their research shows that music perception is directly related to reading skills and phonological awareness but that In the 4-year-olds, musical ability was the link to reading, while in the 5-year-olds, pitch processing was the link.
