Adding animation to charts can make that visualization even better, letting you do things like introduce one piece of a pie chart at a time, so you have more room for discussion.

To insert a pie chart, switch to the Insert tab and click the Chart button.

On the right, select the pie chart style youd like to use from the five options that appear.

When youve made your selection, click OK at the bottom right of the window.

Change the labels of the pie chart by editing the text in column A, and enter its respective data in column B.

Here, select whichever animation youd like to use from the available options.

Here, double-click the animation you added to your pie chart, or click the arrow next to it and then select Effect Options.

Here, you can select how the chart animation behavesas one object or by category.

Choosing By Category makes the chart appear one slice at a time, and thats exactly what we want here.
