Hi Lauren, Garth from Australia has a very nice and comprehensive series of Podcasts which cover a lot of Voiceover functions from very basic things like moving apps to more advanced features like copying and pasting text. If you are unfamiliar with moving apps this might give you a better set of instructions as a description in an email. You can find them here:

I became a little too bold and tried it on the Home screen. I ended up with 4 pages on the Home screen rather than my normal 2 pages. If you can help with this I'd appreciate it. To be precise, I'd say I need help moving icons from X page back to page 1 of Home screen.

When in the app switcher on the iphone, you double tap and hold on any application in there. You'll hear a sound effect, kind of ascending tones, and it should say "editing apps". Then you double tap any application to remove it from the app switcher; it may say "double tap to delete" but don't worry; it isn't really deleting the app. When you've deleted the ones you want to delete, you can either double tap "dismiss app switcher" or you can press home which takes you to the normal mode of the app switcher where you open apps; another press of home takes you back to the home screen. I would think it would be similar on your ipod. Hth. -- Cheryl May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to You, Lord, my rock and my Redeemer.
