Abstract	The study aims to explore the ‘Effect of music on learning Number Concept among Children with Intellectual Disability’. Ten children aged 6-9 years with Mild Intellectual Disability participated in this study. The sample selected is from Sweekar-Upakar Special School in Secunderabad. A Pre-test - Post-test control group design is used for evaluation. With the subjects randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the Control group, a checklist was developed to assess the number concept among children with intellectual disabilities. A 40-minute intervention was given for 20 sessions for two weeks straight, excluding pre and post-tests. The findings revealed that the subjects in experimental group, who have received music as a medium of instruction showed higher achievement in learning number concepts than the subjects in the control group.
