Microsoft Excel Graphing: The Business of Halloween
Class experience
US Grade 6 - 9
During this one-time class, students will get hands-on practice creating graphs using Microsoft Excel. Students will also get practice in interpreting data and discuss how business decisions are made. Halloween is a big business in the United States! Consumers spend money on candy, costumes, decorations, scary movies and more! But, where do consumers spend the most? How many wear costumes and go trick-or-treating? What are the top grossing horror movies of all time? We will examine news...
Students will learn to create bar, line and pie graphs using Microsoft Excel.
I enjoyed a ten-year corporate buying career, in which I made buying decisions for a national chain of more than 4,000 retail stores in the United States. I often analyzed consumer spending to determine what these stores would sell, including what types of Halloween candies and snacks! During this time, I often used Excel in my decisions and had the opportunity to train many people to use Excel.
Students should have Microsoft Excel on their computer prior to starting class, so they can use the program during class.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
We will see the titles of the Top 5 "Highest-Grossing Horror Movies Of All Time," according to Forbes, in order to graph the movies' revenues. However, we will not go into detail discussing the content of the movies.
Data used in class will come from Forbes and the National Retail Federation.
