Getting to Know Nevada Middle School
I used Powerpoint to present my information, but I went after school to get pictures. Once I got the pictures I downloaded the pictures into my Powerpoint. One day I thought that I was done, but then I put music in my Powerpoint. Then I watched my Powerpoint and I thought it was a hit!

iMovie
We used iMovie for our TechYES project. We decided to do an iMovie because we thought it would be fun to include videos of our family(brothers)! We thought making an iMovie would be fun for Mrs. Davis's class. We got our pictures from www.clipart.com. We got our music from iTunes.

Is the internet always true?
We made an iMovie. The movie taught little kids about internet safety and dangers. We had a lot of fun getting the pictures and music onto the iMovie.

My "Rock" Video
For my TechYES Science project I used a digital camera to take pictures of all the rock I had to memorize for my Earth Science class. I imported the 15 different pictures of rocks into iMovie to make a narrated movie about what each rocks classification and special characteristics.
I used different background music for the igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks while doing a voice over narration of their different characteristics.
The igneous rocks had a heavy metal rock band music. The sedimentary had soft classical music. The metamorphic rocks had weird techno like music.
I then exported my movie to a quicktime version and uploaded it to TeacherTube so my friends and family could see it. I also burned it to a DVD (using iDVD from iMovie) and showed it to my science class a week later. My "rock" video helped me and other students in my class remember the difference between the rocks.
