Excel Spreadsheets

We are currently learning how to use Excel spreadsheets to make interactive worksheets for kids. Excel is a tool made by Microsoft that is used to create spreadsheets for a variety of purposes.

This is a great time saver for teachers. I would most often use this tool to practice math questions because they have cut and dry single answers. I did enjoy my final product, but it took awhile to create the worksheet. I'm sure it would be more useful when I become more familiar with the process. Next time I create a worksheet, I think I will try using math questions.

This is an example of what the children would see:
