Details

This is a tutorial designed for students as an introduction to sreadsheet usage.
This activity is contained in a unit plan within Microsoft Works 3.0.
The files are listed in order starting with the File#1ss.wks.
For use on a network, these files should be installed in a shared, read only directory on the server ( Winnipeg School Division #1 uses S:\2Student)
After opening Microsoft works, students would go to Open an Existing Document, change to the S:\ directory and open the appropriate lesson.
Work can be saved to the server using T:\ 2Teacher. Students save work by changing the word "File" in the filename with their initials ex.  File #1ss.wks becomes JS#1ss.wks.
Figure 1 is a sample from files attached. These files may be downloaded from this site.
