I teach kindergarten in a Title 1 school. One way I get my students excited about expressing themselves and learning how to summarize a story is to create a podcast using GarageBand. I post the Podcast on SeeSaw and invite my parents to listen and leave comments. We love it!

“Soundeffect stories” are fun for kids to create. Like an old-time radio show, students bring their writing to life with GarageBand’s stingers and built-in sound effects!
