HOW TO USE MICROSOFT EXCELBy Devorah Howe

STEP 1• Open up Microsoft Excel.

• Start playing around or pressing the ribbons at the top to learn more about Microsoft Excel.

STEP 2

• You are going to start filling in information about “students grades”.

• It is important to know what the buttons and symbols mean as you go across the top of the screen.

STEP 3

• The next step is how to put in formulas. This step requires you to press the function button located right next to the check mark on the bar.

• Insert whichever formula applies to what you’re looking for. This allows you to drag the formula to any column and row you need without having to repeat the everything all over again.

STEP 4

• Now you’re going to start entering students’ names and grades into the gradebook.

• Note, you’re going to do this starting in cell A14. Continue to do this by pressing the enter button after every name you insert.

STEP 5

• You can make multiple changes to your gradebook, whenever you want to. You can add rows and columns at anytime.

• You do this by simply clicking on the row or column you’re working on and right click on the number or letter.

• A blank column or row should appear right after (row) or right before (column)

STEP 6

• Once you’ve completed all the steps into making an excel worksheet, you are now ready to print out your completed work.

• Before you do that though, make sure everything is correct.

STEP 7

• Note, when printing out your gradebook, there’s different ways you can do this.

• You can print with or without gridlines and you can also print in a portrait or landscape feature.

STEP 8

• Now it’s time to print! Simply just press the FLIE button at the top of the ribbon and press print.

• Print to the printer your computer is linked up to.

• Alas, there’s your Excel worksheet!

ADDITIONAL INFORMATIONYou can also add things like bar charts or graphs to your excel sheet for
