So today I showed them how to create a movie about Spring using iMovie. First we opened up iMovie and they recorded themselves saying something like, &#8220;Hi, my name is Whatever, and I&#8217;m going to tell you all about spring.&#8221;  I showed them how to highlight the good part of their video and drag it into the project (<em>that is always the most difficult part of iMovie for students to understand<\/em>). Next we generated a list of search terms for finding spring pictures.  They came up with words like sun, flower, chick, duckling, lamb, rain, butterfly, etc. They selected one word they wanted and I showed them how to do a Google Image Search.  I thought they would be able to drag the picture right into iMovie, but since they couldn&#8217;t, I had to help with that part. (<em>I discovered that feature is in a later version of iMovie so I had to drag the picture into a folder and then drag it into iMovie<\/em>). Then I showed them how to record a voiceover telling about the picture.  Finally they exported their videos as QuickTime movies (yep, they did it all by themselves!). Later, I combined all their videos into one movie and added a soundtrack.
