Reflection

Today when I was working in my PSA I start making my plan. First I start by making a plan and now how long is my video going to be. I rated my self with a 5 out of 5 today, because I was paying attention and I did make my plan. I focus in my work and start working in my imovie producer.
My plan is to continue working and make the best video ever. When I have time I can keep working in my video, also that I can work every time that I'm in the class. I plan on continuing working as hard as I'm working right know. I would try to make a good video that can explain about Digital Access so everyone can learn about it.
