Dear Class:

Last class we worked on a very basic budget in Excel. I had you put your title in A1, merge and center it across all of the columns we did, and then left it alone. I had you put in "Items" in A3 followed by "January" in B3 and, using the "fill handle" (little square on the lower left hand of the border), created all the rest of the months to December. The column after that should be "Total". I then had you create 8 items (we did snacks and cell phone together). After you created all of the amounts that were monthly for each item, I had you do the totals. We finished by charting the items and the totals only.

Today, you will be doing a PowerPoint with an intro slide, "Your life" with eight slides total with the second slide using your chart from your excel spreadsheet and titling it "My Budget". You will be inserting sounds, animation, and creating items to use.
