Students will write and illustrate a time line depicting major time periods or interesting facts. They can work in groups or independently to make single panels for a time line or use butcher paper to make longer ones. Students decorate a shoe box into a mini-float showing their research. Use small toy figures, rocks, vehicles, sotto, and other materials for construction. Students can make a background and costumes reflecting the time period.
Puppet shows are another good source especially for shy students.
4. Make dioramas or murals. These are best when done in small groups. Nothing beats the hands on approach. Learn songs and dances of the different time periods. Patriotic songs will only be learned if taught as part of the curriculum.
