Integrated learning is well established in education, primarily in the classroom subjects. This article describes settings and ways for extending integrated instruction to physical education and music. Benefits of these connections include reinforcing content and better meeting the needs of students whose intelligences include the bodily kinesthetic, musical, and interpersonal as well as the linguistic and logical-mathematical structure predominating in traditional instruction.
