In groups, discuss the questions below.Today, schools in several countries are considering the question of whether subjects like music and arts should be among those in the curriculum. For many people, a good knowledge of music and arts is regarded as a necessity for anyone who wants to be truly educated. Some say that students who are good at music and arts actually do better in more academic subjects like maths and science. However, some people see music and arts as an unimportant part of education since they don’t prepare students for a life of work.Do you think music and arts should becompulsory subjects at schools in Viet Nam?Why or why not?I don't think Music and Arts should be compulsory subjects at school. I'd like to explain my choice more clearly. Firstly, students have to learn so many subjects at school now. They must study both at school and at home. This make students life so stressful. Secondly, some students like music and arts but others don't. Maybe they like outdoor activities such as sports or something else. Therefore Music and Arts shouldn't be compulsory subjects. However, they should be optional subjects and students should be encouraged to study these subjects as long as they are gifted. We should also appreciate these students. Students who are good at Music and Arts are as the students who are excellent at Maths or Science.Suggested answer3.	Look at the different subjects below.
