Purpose of a spreadsheet is to calculate, organize, and analyze data
Create Purpose of a spreadsheet is to calculate, organize, and analyze data When you open: Excel – grids (football iron grid) Word – blank (painters canvas)
5
Parts of a spreadsheet Data Labels Formula
6
3 Parts to a spreadsheet
Column – are vertical and identified by letters Rows – are horizontal and identified by numbers Cells – the intersection of a column and a row and identified by the letter of the column and the number of the row
7
Help button Book1 Formula bar Name box New sheet Sheet1
8
Position the mouse between the column headings until it changes to a double-headed arrow, then double click Select column – Home ribbon – cells section – format cells Right click – column width Change column size (width) – row (height)
9
Select row by clicking on the number
To change the height – put the cursor over the line between the numbers and drag
10
Common issue #### means Cell is too narrow
To repair – adjust column width by using double black arrow or click and drag column
11
Practice In cell H1, type in your first and last name.
In cell H2, type the number Click on the letter H on top of the column – this selects the whole column. Go to Home ribbon cells group select format cells auto fit column width –(will adjust column width). Next put your cursor between the letter H and I, then drag to the left.

Workbooks Renaming worksheet Collection of spreadsheets in one file
Double click on the tab, type in the name, click somewhere else Right click on the tab, rename, type the name, and click somewhere else
13
Practice Change tab name: Save WORKBOOK:
Double click on the tab for Sheet1 and type in the new name ‘Orange’. Right click on the tab for Sheet2 and type in the new name ‘Blue’. Change tab name: Go to the Backstage view (FILE TAB) and save the document as: Payan 1st Period Practice Save WORKBOOK:

(make very specific changes)
Alignment (to center on a page) Format cells (make very specific changes) Page Layout page setup section click More arrow button Select Margins tab click horizontal or vertical Home tab Go to cells group Click on format cells
18
Mouse Bingo assignment use handout for more detail instructions
Insert Header and title of assignment: Your grid will consist of 5 rows and 5 columns Enter 1 free space with clip art of your choice Type each vocabulary word from the next slide (24 of them) Save file as Mouse Bingo Print Landscape (make sure it is readable & on 1 PAGE) Align page Horizontal Fit on one page
19
Vocabulary Overtype Insert File Workbook Worksheet Range Merging
Column heading Row heading Cell Splitting Active cell 13. Gridlines 14. Format 15. Status bar 16. Ribbon 17. Formula bar 18. Name box 19. Mini toolbar 20. Menu 21. Submenu 22. Text 23. Left aligned 24. AutoCorrect feature
20
Formulas Operands Operators Calculation Symbol (=) equal; tells the computer you are entering a formula The cell reference or numbers to be calculated Mathematical symbols, indicates the mathematical operation to be performed
21
Practice Open Excel Go to Start button Select All Programs
Microsoft Office – Excel 2010 Open xx Practice. Where are all your documents? Notice the difference between Excel and Word Go to Excel and enter the following: cell A1, type 2 cell A2, type 3 and cell A3 type
22
Practice Select A1,A2, and A3. Copy (CTRL C)
Highlight B1, C1, D1, E1, and F1 Paste (CTRL V)
23
In cell A4, type = A1+A2+A3 and hit enter.
Practice Or use the Summation Symbol In cell A4, type = A1+A2+A3 and hit enter. Identify the correct range and hit Enter In cell B4, on the Home ribbon – editing section – click on the Summation symbol
24
What does it mean? Confirm a cell Editing a cell
Click outside of the cell and then back in The cursor will be blinking in the cell
25
Relative Cell referencing
Absolute cell reference Means you can copy a formula to a new location and the cell references changes to reflect the new location The cell does not change when copied $a$3
26
Order of Operations Parentheses Exponentiation Multiplication Division
Addition Subtraction Functions Ex: (2 x 3)+ 5^2 - 9 / 3 Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally Predetermined formulas or equations
