Having the VS data available for kids to tap into is wonderful.

I'm hoping to use the wealth of information available from the Vital Signs website this year to do some spreadsheet/graphing exercises with my students.

I'm planning to use your guide here to make a video tutorial on how to do it - I think some of the language in this guide might be a little difficult for students who haven't used spreadsheets heavily - however, it's an excellent starting point (certainly a nice refresher for exporting from VS for me).
