Literacy/Vocabulary Strategies (Word Wall)
| |
The Entry bar or formula bar shows the active cell’s information.
It is sometimes called the formula bar because you can see the formula when you click on the active cell
Look at the black border around the active cell D8.
We are going to use the autofill today and it will allow you to quickly fill days of week or formulas.
Look at how the values (numbers) are aligned to the right margin.
Look at how the labels (words) are aligned to the left margin.

Guided Practice:
@ Test this Friday! You can practice the questions online at home or
take home a pink study guide and/or the Review for Test Spreadsheet Vocabulary PowerPoint.
@ Working With Cell References in Excel 2010 http://www.gcflearnfree.org/excel2010/9.4
stop at 3 minutes
@ Go to the Spreadsheet folder, then the Relative Cell Reference folder, then
Open Blooming Bells Nursery file
@ Right click on Sheet 2 worksheet tab and rename to Autofill
@ Right click and change the color on the tab
Autofill- allows you to quickly fill in days of the week.
@ Type in Monday then drag cursor down.
@ Type in January then drag cursor down.
@ Go to Sheet 1
@ Click on Cell F4
@ Type in = then click on Cell D4
@ Type * then click on Cell E4
@ Press enter and you will see the answer $29.75
Relative Cell Referencing- copies formulas and automatically adjusts to correct cell range.
@ Now click on the cell with $29.75
@ You will see the black border because it is an active cell.
@ Put your cursor in the lower right corner of the border and you will see a plus sign
@ Drag the plus sign down so it calculates the other answers.
Independent Exercise:
@ Working With Cell References in Excel 2010 http://www.gcflearnfree.org/excel2010/9.4

Absolute cell referencing- formulas do NOT adjust or do NOT change.
For example- $C$12- column A does not change and row 2 does not change.
Go to My Computer- then Student Docs- then Witkowski folder
then- Spreadsheet folder- then RELATIVE CELL REFERENCE folder
then- rose variety file
If time: Introduction to Relative References Video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wli4L_tECPg
