Fifth-grade students in Linda Laneback’s reading class at Scales Elementary School recently read “Satchmo’s Blues” by Alan Schroeder, a storybook biography of Louis Armstrong’s childhood.

After they finished the book, they used GarageBand, software that allows the user to create music or a podcast, to experiment with making their own jazz music.
