The Smart Seating Chart - Never Write a Seating Chart Again!
By Blooming Through High School
How Does It Work?
It’s Magic!
Actually it’s all Made Using Excel Formulas and Cell References.
I HATE writing seating charts and I made these so I wouldn’t have to anymore.
But I didn’t stop there... I wanted a way to organize students more efficiently for checking work and giving feedback, as well as having a way to modify my seating chart based on my instructional needs, so I made all kinds of seating charts and used my knowledge of Excel to make this SMART. (How to instructions and videos are included!!)

Financial Literacy - Digital Checkbook Register
By Homeschool with Big Easy Homeschooling Mom
Do your students know how to properly make entries into a spreadsheet to keep track of their deposits and withdrawals? I have created an Excel and Google Sheets spreadsheet to make it easy for them. Each spreadsheet has 3 tabs - 1) showing them what I created, 2) a blank spreadsheets with headings, & 3) a black spreadsheet so they can follow the easy directions I have provided to create their own. What a great way for them to keep track of the money they receive, spend, and be able to balance their checking account!
On the main thumbnail, please download the specific directions to create their own spreadsheet. It is a learning experience in the area of financial literacy + they are gaining Excel and Google Sheets skills.

Self-Checking 15-Question Quiz Template
By Homeschool with Big Easy Homeschooling Mom
I have created a digital self-checking 15-question quiz template in Excel and Google Sheets.
With this template, you will be able to insert 15 questions as well as insert an answer key into this conditionally formatted template that will do the grading for you automatically. If a student answers a question correctly, the answer will turn green and if they answer incorrectly, the answer will turn red. You will be able to use this template for multiple quizzes in multiple subjects - all you have to do is change the questions and change the answer key.
This template will be a lifesaver and you will be sure to keep handy for every day to weekly use.
I look forward to your feedback.
