Support your students in mastering digital graphing with our How to Create Line Graphs Using Digital Tools Posters & Checklist! This clear, visual resource breaks the graphing process into simple, manageable steps, helping students independently create accurate and well-presented line graphs using spreadsheet tools. With visual cues, prompts and real-world relevance, this toolkit is the perfect companion to any digital data lesson.

Each poster highlights a key step in the process - such as entering data, inserting a graph, editing labels, and customising the design - making it easy for students to follow along during modelling sessions or independent work. The checklist reinforces accountability by guiding students to complete each component of a successful graph, while also supporting peer feedback and reflection tasks.
