Entering Local Groundhog Data in an Excel Spreadsheet

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Here is a cross-curricular ecology and technology lesson; your learners create spreadsheets depicting the location and number of groundhog dens in a local park. They research groundhogs and analyze data about where the groundhog population is most prevalent. Finally, they prepare questions for a debate about whether to preserve or euthanize the local groundhogs. The model could apply to a variety of situations relevant to your location as well.
