Jason Heereen and his awesome SL Jazz Band had our reading group up to the High School today to listen to some fabulous music! My small group reading kids have been enjoying A Good Night for Ghosts, set in New Orleans during the depression. We loved learning about Louis Armstrongs start in music, the famed pirate Jean Lafitte and the city of New Orleans. We even heard a rumor Louis was here once at the Cobblestone! This book really excited the students and brought to life a time in our country's history when we were struggling with many things, but life was sweet and simple.
Mr. Hereen & the SLHS Jazz Band members, thanks for bringing the music alive today!
When the Saints Go Marching In. Enjoy that VOICE!
