Mini‑Lesson: Google Sheets Basics
Mini‑Lesson: Getting Comfortable in Google Sheets
Today we’ll explore the Google Sheets interface and begin building a simple monthly budget. By the end of class, you will be able to:
- Navigate the Sheets interface (tabs, views, formatting tools).
- Create and format worksheet data (titles, categories, currency formatting).
- Use autofill and basic formulas (
=SUM(),=C2-B2). - Organize your sheet so it’s clear, readable, and professional.
Open Google Sheets and follow along as we build a budget together.
