Ain't Nobody Got Time to Graph! This Google Classroom resource is a great way to introduce graphing to your students in an easy step-by-step process! This product includes two of my graphing products bundled together for a 13% discount off the total price! In this interactive Google Classroom resource, students will learn about four types of graphs (bar graphs, line graphs, pie charts and scatter plots) as well as when to use each type of graph and how to create each type of graph using Google Sheets. Each slide includes an interactive portion for the student to complete with notes, videos, or examples that can be referenced in the future. This resource is customizable and can be saved by the student or additional practice problems can be added to reinforce graphing techniques. These interactive slides are a fabulous way to introduce graphing or prepare for standardized testing. This resource is also great for remote or distance learning!
