My class has recently been reading diaries and historical fiction from the nineteenth century. We wondered about when various inventions were developed and became readily available. Students construct a timeline of significant events in their personal lives, using the concept of intervals. Students construct a timeline of significant events in their community. Students interpret time lines and explain events in sequence.
Students use historical documents and other data and accurately place events on a timeline.
