For today's activity we used excel. Like Publisher, excel is another example of how a basic and standard program can be used really cleverly in the class room. Today we counted how many m&ms were in a packet, created a table then turned that table into a graph. We were encouraged to present our spreadsheet well by using colour and pictures from the m&m website. Teaching children the basic skill of how to cut and paste is very important as it opens up a wide range of possibilities to make assignments look fantastic. I surprising had fun today with excel... or maybe it's just the chocolate talking!
