Methods: The selected method for the present study was quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design and a control group. The statistical population of the present study comprised 30 volunteer girls aged 7 to 9 (Persian speaking) with Reading disorders who were randomly placed in experimental and control groups (15 people each). The experimental group participated in Music therapy sessions for 30 minutes twice a week for four months. First, to increase their proportion of focusing on music little by little,second, to increase the speed of the music gradually during the sessions,and third, to replace the active method slowly with the passive approach and move the tendency of the selected melodies from monophonic and vocal-less texture to polyphonic and vocal orchestral texture. Results: The data were analyzed using paired t-test. The results showed that the experimental group’s sensitivity, memory, and Auditory sequence were significantly higher than those in the control group post-test (p<0. 001). Conclusion: Music as an applied method can effectively improve the auditory symptoms of children with Reading disorders.
