Tasks 1-10

The document sent to me was good although the instructions were a little confusing. On the instructions number two was worded wrong and it made it confusing to understand. Overall it was a pretty good document and the intsructions were easy to understand. It was a very good experience for me. The document I made compared to theirs was about the same. This experience will help me when I take the Word exam.

Plan for Tomorrow in Class

Our plan when we come to class is to finish up the autobiography we started yesterday in class. Once we have that finished we plan to complete the ten tasks that were assigned to us. Another part of our plan is to have this completed by the time that it is due. We plan to use the time we have in class tomorrow wisely so that we can have this project finished and make sure that it is a project that is not just good but looks good as well.
