Spreadsheets

The idea presented in this link would provide a basic starting point for me to use with some of my higher level students. While the picture here is semi-complex, I could come up with a simpler message to convey to my students. I would use the SMARTBoard so that the picture could be developed in front of the entire group. This would probably be more of a lesson in using co-ordinates instead of using spreadsheet programs to enter data. I also saw an idea in the "Spreadsheet Magic" book to make pictographs which could be used with some of my lower level students to reinforce basic counting skills.
