Hi Year 7


This term we will start to look at spread sheet modelling.


What is it and why are they so very useful?


Our first lesson is pretty much getting you used to what spread sheets are/ why they are used etc.


I think you might enjoy this as much as other units


There is quite a good classroom activity on your shared drive to do




Once you have finished that I think you might enjoy this activity also: https://www.bbc.co.uk/education/guides/zdydmp3/activity


There will be an assessment on spread sheets in the last week



Enjoy and do well




Mr T
