LEARNING TARGET Student will identify the parts of a spreadsheet.

VOCABULARY Cell Reference – location of a cell Row – labeled with numbers Formula Bar – allows users to enter a formula Column – labeled with letters Cell – individual rectangle within a spreadsheet Cell Range – refers to a group of cells within a spreasheet Merge – combining 2 or more cells together to form a larger cell Spreadsheet – a document that arranges data in a series of columns and rows Help Menu – provides assistance with spreadsheets Spreadsheet Title – displays the name of the spreadsheet Workbook – a collection of worksheets in a spreadsheet document

LEARNING SCALE 4.0 I can identify the parts of a spreadsheet and explain it to someone else. 3.0 I can identify the parts of a spreadsheet. 2.0 I can identify some parts of a spreadsheet. 1.0 I cannot identify the parts of a spreadsheet.

SPREADSHEETS A spreadsheet is a document that stores data in a grid of horizontal rows and vertical columns. They can be used (tracking sales, storing customer and employee information, tracking inventory). They are useful for storing, organizing and manipulating data.

SPREADSHEETS They are made up of columns and rows, organized by letters and numbers

CELLS, COLUMNS, AND ROWS cell is a specific location within a spreadsheet and is defined by the intersection of a row and column. A column is a vertical group of values within a table. A row is a horizontal group of values within a table.

CELL REFERENCE the address or location of a specific cell Like the coordinates (cell A1 is in column A, Row 1)

CELL RANGE A group of cells within a row or column Example: A3:F3

WORKING WITH SPREADSHEETS Follow along with me as I show you how to: Open a spreadsheet program Create a new worksheet Identify the Spreadsheet title Toolbar Menu Shortcut toolbar Formula Bar Help Menu

WORKBOOKS made up of worksheets that are accessible via tabs at the bottom of the workbook.

SPREADSHEET NAVIGATION Follow along with me as I show you how to Select and rename worksheets Navigate between worksheets Navigate between cells, rows, and columns Select an entire row, entire column, and a range of cells Select multiple cells that are not adjacent

CREATING AND MANAGING SPREADSHEET DATA Do this spreadsheet activity along with me…

USE THE UNDO AND REDO FEATURES, ADD ADDITIONAL FORMATTING TO CELL DATA, AND USE THE PERCENTAGE FORMAT.

CREATE A SPREADSHEET ACTIVITY

SORTING SPREADSHEET DATA Sorting data allows users to re-order that data on a spreadsheet Examples of sorting data Organizing by alphabetical Sorting by birthday Sorting by price

SORTING SPREADSHEET DATA

FILTERING SPREADSHEET DATA Allows user to display data based on specific criteria Examples of filtering: displaying only failing grades, displaying only December birthdays, displaying only students who’s name begins with the letter “R”

FORMATTING CELLS, COLUMNS AND ROWS You will learn how to adjust row and column widths, insert row and columns, merge cells, and apply shading and borders

ADDING BORDERS AND SHADING TO SPREADSHEETS Allows data to stand out
