Consider this claim:
Public schools should provide music classes because they are important for children's
development.
Which is the strongest evidence to support the claim?
Research has shown that music training can help improve reading skills
through the way it teaches students to distinguish between sounds and
recognize language patterns.
At a recent conference for music educators, teachers noted that a lack of
funding for the arts was making their jobs more difficult.
In a recent survey, a majority of elementary school students reported that
they enjoy their music classes as much as or more than they enjoy their math
and science classes.
