AW SS Template (Click
to Download - Requires Appleworks)
Students invite guests (parents, teachers, grandparents)
to a soup tasting. Parents volunteer to submit their
favorite soups. Everyone tastes and students vote
for their favorite by entering their individual ratings
for each soup into a spreadsheet. Then the data is
entered into another spreadsheet that tallies the
results. |
