Abstract
Increasingly, teachers are being encouraged to engage in interdisciplinary instruction. Although many of us are comfortable using children's literature as the basis for interdisciplinary units, we rarely think to integrate mathematics and music in our lessons. Music actively involves students in learning and helps develop important academic skills (Rothenberg 1996). By using music to enhance children's enjoyment and understanding of mathematics concepts and skills, teachers can help children gain access to mathematics through new intelligences (Gardner 1993). This integration is especially effective with children who have strong senses of hearing and musical intelligence.
