Timelines are a helpful way for students to organize facts, people and events and to visualize how certain events impacted those that followed. By using the Storyboard That Creator to construct a timeline, students go beyond simply memorizing dates and are able to think critically about how to illustrate and describe important events.
This example highlights a few of the important dates in early Canadian history, however, any topic could be used. Teachers could have students create timelines of specific historical periods that they are studying. They could illustrate the progression of a topic through the ages such as the history of voting rights or the history of the printing press! Timelines could be used in ELA to show the progression of events throughout a story or a biography of a person's life. The possibilities are endless!
For an alternative to the timeline layout, have students create a timeline poster or a worksheet sized timeline to incorporate into a presentation or gallery walk. You can add more than one template to this assignment to give students lots of options and adjust the instructions accordingly.

Due Date:
Objective: Create a timeline in chronological order with accurate dates, descriptions. and illustrations for 5-10 important events relating to your topic.
Student Instructions:
Requirements: 5-10 events listed with correct dates, 1-3 sentence description and appropriate illustration.
Engage your class by working together to build a large timeline that covers your current unit or a shared topic. Collaboration helps students see how their individual research fits into a bigger picture and develops teamwork skills.
Distribute events among your students, ensuring everyone has a unique moment to explore. Researching their own event promotes ownership and deeper understanding.
Ask students to prepare a 1–2 minute explanation of their event, including key details and a visual. Presenting helps reinforce learning and builds communication skills.
Assemble each student's event in chronological order on a bulletin board, wall, or digital platform. Visualizing the timeline together allows students to see historical connections and sequence.
Facilitate a discussion about how earlier events influenced those that followed. Reflecting together deepens critical thinking and helps students make meaningful connections.
Vēstures laika līnijas projekts pamatskolēniem ir aktivitāte, kurā skolēni sakārto svarīgus notikumus, cilvēkus un datumus hronoloģiskā secībā. Tas palīdz viņiem vizualizēt, kā vēstures notikumi savstarpēji saistīti un ietekmē viens otru, veicinot kritisko domāšanu, ne tikai faktu atcerēšanos.
Lai izveidotu klases laika līniju ar Storyboard That, sākiet ar 5–10 galvenajiem notikumiem, ievadiet to datumus secībā, pievienojiet virsrakstu un īsu aprakstu katram, kā arī ilustrējiet katru notikumu ar attiecīgām bildēm. Saglabājiet darbu, lai to varētu kopīgot vai prezentēt.
Laika līnijas var tikt izmantotas ELA, lai sekotu stāsta sižetam vai personas biogrāfijai, un sociālajās zinātnēs, lai parādītu tematu, piemēram, balsošanas tiesību vai izgudrojumu attīstību. Tāpat skolēni var izveidot laika līnijas plakātus vai darba lapas galerijas pastaigām vai prezentācijām.
Laika līnijas palīdz skolēniem vizuāli organizēt informāciju, redzēt cēloņsakarības un saprast notikumu secību. Šī pieeja veicina kritisko domāšanu un labāku atmiņu nekā atsevišķu faktu mācīšanās.
Kvalitatīvs skolēnu laika līnijas projekts būtu jāiekļauj 5–10 notikumi ar precīziem datumiem, īsiem aprakstiem (1–3 teikumi) un ilustrācijām katram notikumam. Laika līnijai jābūt hronoloģiskai un skaidri marķētai.
