The Digital Story Brainstorm

The last digital story I made was last summer when I took Sara Kajder's class. I was pregnant at the time and was going to be on maternity leave for the first quarter of the school year. I made a digital story to introduce myself to my students. My substitute showed it to them on the first day of school.
I would like to make another story that I could use with my students. When I have them do Digital Stories I also give them a broad topic (basically they can do any topic they wish) but I tell them it should be something important to them. I am thinking about doing another story to show as an example, but drastically different subject. I don't want it to be a personal story, because they all do stories about their grandparents, friends, etc. But I would like to have a different kind of example to show them. I may have to take pictures for this movie, instead of using photos I already have.
I could do a story about the procedures of the classroom, I could show them this at the beginning of the year, and that would help them to remember the procedures to follow. I definatly want the audience for my movie to be my students (freshmen).
