When, How, and Why to give credit!

Do you want to know when, how, and why to give credit to the person who’s picture, words, music or sideshow that you used in a blog post or presentation that you did. You give credit to somebody when you have used someone’s quotes, music, picture, slideshow, or just anything that they wrote or that belongs to them. By giving credit to this person you are saying that you are not trying to steal their idea, you are just borrowing it. You also give credit because  you do not want to claim somebody’s hard-work as your own. Even if you plagiarize from the internet you could get in trouble for using a copyrighted material without putting their name on your presentation. You give credit to someone by simply typing, or writing their name on your presentation.

~My Pumpkin Poem~

The beautiful orange pumpkin sitting in the window sill on rainy day

awaiting the warmth of the bright, yellow sun, only

being covered by small pieces of cotton

with it’s only dream to see the sun.

 

The beautiful, round, orange pumpkin, finally craved to see the sun through

it’s perfectly shaped eyes, feeling the hot fire in it’s mouth,

waiting to enjoy the freshly baked

pumpkin pie.
