Our focus today is in learning about the concept of decomposition, and using it to break down the project in to steps that can then be turned into a timeline or schedule. Let's learn a bit about decomposition first.
One more, just to make sure you have a decent grasp on the concept.
Use decomposition to break your project down into smaller more manageable steps. Here is an example of how many people will draw out their decomposition.

On your slide for today add:
- a screenshot of your typing practice
- decomposition of your project
Tomorrow, your finished plan document is due. We'll take the different planning parts from this entire week and drop them into a single document. If you're behind on any of the planning, and have a bit of extra class time, then it'd be a good idea to use it on that bit.
