November/December Reflection
My favorite unit from November and December is when we had partners and we had a topic of our choice and we went and took pictures too create a photostory. We used communication in this project alot because we had too decide which pictures too use and how we should set up the photostory and the text explaining the pictures.
I learned that you dont need a whole bunch of text too explain what needs too be said. A photostory allows you to narate so there is more room for the big picture and less text. I was very proud of my photostory because at first i was having alot of trouble but then i got the hang of it and now im a pro(:
I am very happy with all the work i created in photostory because i learned different things with every project that was completed. And then i would get more ideas.

October Reflection
My favorite unit from October was Animoto. I loved Animoto because it was easy but so much fun. It is a very creative way too put together any kind of project even if it is for school, work, or even a holiday present.
I learned how too create a presentation about anything. How too add pictures, music, text, and much more. And even if it is for school, they make it fun for any project. My project that i created in Animoto that i am most proud of is the one where it was all about me. I put pictures that described my favorite sports, hobbies, and other activities. But Animoto made it fun to watch.
With Animoto, i was happy with every project i did but the project about me made me happy because it was wild and crazy just like me. And i didn't even design it that way, that's why Animoto was so fantastic too me because all i had to do was put pictures and music up and they created it with how they thought it would look best.

Favorite Unit From August/September
Jenna Bryant
My favorite unit from this past semester is GoogleSketch-Up. I enjoyed GoogleSketch-Up because i could make it my own. I made many projects in this application like a dream house, and a gymnastics studio! This is a very creative way too use technology because your virtually building.
I learned how too use tools too build different objects or anything pretty much. You can also add in 3-D objects from google by clicking a link in the application. I am by far most proud of my gymnastics studio. I put more time and effort into it and tried too make it as real as possible.
For the most part, i like most of the work i had created. But some not as much as others because of the effort that i put in.
This isnt my project, but i couldnt get mine on here because it is an actual file.

Glogstrer is a website used to create pages on different subjects. Can
be anything.

The article i read was about employees and their managers snooping through their face book. Also, how it can cause fines from $100-$15,000. I believe it is wrong for managers or even employees too look through other employees private life's. I mean snooping through could let you know something about someone that may be important but it shouldn't affect their work or relationship between other workers. If someone snooped through my face book and i found out about it, i would be very angry to the fact that it could possibly affect what goes on at work or school.

Texting While Driving
I believe that there are pro's and con's to this law! The pro's to this law are it keeps people alert and not distracted by texts, or calls. Also, people keep their eyes on the road and not the text. But there are cons as well. First, not many people but mostly teenagers are gonna follow this law. Also, while people still text and drive they will be more distracted about hiding it which can cause dreadful accidents. This law will probably be ignored mostly by teenagers rather than people over the age of 25.
So in my opinion this law will be completely ignored and there is no purpose for it!
