Here is the timeline that I am using throughout the school year. I found that a timeline is a WONDERFUL history review and I teach from it as much as I do anything else. I added cause and effect this year to help with student understanding and discussion. I added dots to put on a yarn line and I also have small labels that I put on a large South Carolina map at the front of my room. Enjoy :)
