Microsoft Excel is a great tool to use in the classroom to make charts, tables, graphs, and more. Excel is very useful and has many advantages for teachers and their form of keeping grades. The spreadsheet I created above has a list of ten students, the book they have to read over the summer, and which they have to do a book report and art project concerning the book they read. MS Excel is a much more cleaner, organized way to keep track of students' grades and progress throughout the school year. Using excel in the classroom exceeds far beyond just grading, it can also be used in different activities and subjects such as science, history, and language arts. It will be a great science project for you and your children to create a Periodic Table of Elements with an excel spreadsheet. Make your own side notes of the table and break it down as you see fit, ultimately be creative and have an open mind to incorporate excel in your day to day lessons. The incorporation of technology in the classroom is booming and teachers need to adapt to the change and learn the materials available to them.
