iWork Numbers - Make a Bar Chart

Assignment: These instructions are for iWork Numbers, but the concepts and actions are similar for other spreadsheet apps.

Be sure to have students use "Show Print View" before printing to make sure the chart fits onto a single page to avoid wasting paper and ink.
