Do Now 11/30

Every year during Thanksgiving, my family always has our family over, mostly from my Dad's side. We would always set up the tables in our family room and we always make dessert (mostly pies and cake). My Dad is always the person to make the Turkey and my mom always makes the stuffing. Before we eat, we say what we are grateful for every year and what we hope for in the future. My mom always decorates the house with pumpkin scented candles. 

Starting this summer, my mom and grandma are going to start teaching my sister and I how to cook the meals we always make. My grandparents always bring rice and more dessert. Another tradition my mom has is that she makes an onion dip to go with any type of chip. My mom also makes toasted bread with homemade cranberry, cream cheese topping. My sister and I devour my mom's dip every year.

Starting this year, my dad is starting to host an annual football game at our local high school for every age. This year, my dad and his friends and their sons/ daughters played together or on the side watching people play. I had plenty of fun this year and this has to be my best Thanksgiving yet.

Do Now 11/9

      On the first day of break, Thursday, I slept until one o' clock and my friends and I went to the boulevard and ate lunch with them but I did not get home until six thirty. Afterwards I went to the Montclair State University and Kean University Game with Gabby and Steph, Montclair won. On Friday I slept until one again and I went to the boulevard again and went to the field to play volleyball with my friends. Around five o' clock, a ball was hit towards my face and I went to cover my face and my left pinky went numb. I looked down and my pinky was bent sideways and it was off the joint. I went to the hospital and they put it back into place, I have to wear a splint for two to three weeks. After the hospital I went out to hangout with my friends.
       Then the next day I went to the Varsity Football game and went to the movies after to see "Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension" with my dad and Arielle. I went to my friend Jillian's house after. On Sunday, I went to hang out with my friends again for lunch and went home because I was not feeling well. Around five o' clock I went to club volleyball tryouts, but I could not play because of my finger.

Educational Technology and Copyright Law

What I learned from this video overall is that in educational purposes you are allowed to use the image from anywhere, as long as its licensed and you give credit. Copyright is also a federal law in every subject you could think of. It is allowed to use an image for a project not used publicly. If you post something publicly with no credit, it is a federal offense and you can get arrested for that.
