When using in a classroom or home learning environment use tracks 5 - 11 (slow tracks) with paced, rhythmic delivery related games and learning situations. Also, use these tracks during meal times, transition times, and nap times. These tracks are between 52 and 66 beats per minute. Breathing and playing "in time" with this music is highly encouraged to sharpen focus and reduce stress. These slower tracks are also effective with children of special needs, as related to their ability to focus over periods of time and be efficient in general. Use tracks 1 - 4 and 12 -18 (fast tracks) with dramatic delivery related games and learning situations. Also, use as background to artistic activities and as foreground when "surfing the words." These tracks are between 112 and 126 beats per minute.
