Adobe Spark Video
Adobe Spark Video is the easiest way to make a video about a topic you researched. It's easiest to create on an iPad or iPhone but a Chromebook or desktop computer works too. Start with images, then press the record button to record your narration. It prefers recordings limited to 10 seconds per image but will allow up to 30 seconds per image. It automatically makes the image duration match the duration of the recording. When finished, export then upload to Google Drive to attach to your Google Classroom assignment. It is recommended you finish the project on the same platform (website, app) it was started on.
