▶ Your Answer :
There is an argument over whether or not young
school children (from age 5 to 10) should be required to study art and music in
addition to math, language, science, or history. Some people argue that the
children do not need to learn diverse subjects at that time since it is right
and important that they should play outside with their parents and peers. My
view, however, is that in consideration of young children’s the future, they
should be needed to learn a lot of subjects such as art, music, math, language,
science, and so on. This is largely because young children can improve their academic
standards by learning a variety of study. Moreover, they can find without any
difficulty their talents and interests through many experiences which study
lots of subjects at the young school.
To begin with, the children who study
diverse subjects at elementary school will enhance their creativity and thought
which means increase of their academic level. Of course, it is significant to
play with their peers and families in that period; however what they study
diverse subjects is as important as having a good time with their friends and
families for their development. A case in point is my cousin who is 9 years
old. He was only interested in playing games and with their friends before he
entered the elementary school; however, when I met him after a long time, I
felt that my cousin definitely changed and developed because of boosting his behaviors
that he became many curiosity about science and tried to analyze a mysterious
question and drew imaginative pictures. In this sense, I absolutely thought
that various subjects certainly help young children developing their creativity
and thought. Had it not been for the experiences studying other subjects, my
cousin would not have increased all everything. As the example shows, studying
other subjects plays an important role in increasing children’s academic level.
In addition, the experiences which study a
wide array of subjects will help to find student’s talents and interests for
their future. Currently, most university students have difficulty finding what
they want to do because when they were young children, they did not experience diverse
studying at school. At that time, they probably would have merely studied basic
subjects such as math and language in order to get good grades on tests. In reality,
according to a study conducted by a team of researchers at Seoul University,
more than two-thirds of surveyed university’s students mentioned that they
regretted not learning a variety of subjects at their childhood on account of
their uncertain future without dream.
To sum up, Not only does studying art and
music as well as math, science boost children’s academic standards, but it also
help to find their talents and interest a little earlier.
