Создание хронологии исторического события, даже самого недавнего, может быть полезным для учащихся, когда они узнают, как текущие события влияют на их повседневную жизнь. В этом упражнении учащиеся создадут график не менее 5 событий во время пандемии COVID-19. Учащиеся могут использовать школьные ресурсы, чтобы исследовать различные события и выбирать те, которые они считают наиболее важными. Например, первые известные случаи, когда их школа впервые была закрыта, разработка вакцины и т.д. до 9 февраля 2021 г. В зависимости от того, когда учащиеся начинают этот проект, может быть гораздо больше мероприятий, которые они могут включить.

Foster deeper understanding by guiding students to share, compare, and reflect on their timelines. This boosts engagement and helps students connect personal experiences to the broader pandemic story.
Define what you want students to gain from the discussion—such as recognizing patterns, building empathy, or analyzing causes and effects of major Covid-19 events.
Divide the class into groups of 3–4 and have each student present their timeline. Encourage group members to ask questions and identify similarities or unique choices in events.
Invite groups to share highlights with the class. Use prompts like “Which events appeared most often?” or “How did different families experience lockdown?” to spark discussion.
Encourage students to relate timeline events to their personal experiences. Ask them to share how certain events affected them or their community to build empathy and understanding.
Have students write or draw about one key insight they gained from the discussion. This helps solidify learning and gives you feedback on their understanding.
A Covid-19 timeline activity for middle school students involves researching and sequencing major events from the pandemic, such as key outbreak dates, school closures, and vaccine development, to help students understand how the pandemic unfolded and impacted daily life.
Students can create an engaging Covid-19 timeline by selecting at least five significant events, writing short captions for each, and illustrating them with scenes, symbols, or characters. Using templates or posters can make the timeline visually appealing for presentations or gallery walks.
Key events to include are the first reported cases, school lockdowns, introduction of remote learning, vaccine rollouts, and major policy changes. Students may also add local milestones or events that affected their community.
Timelines help students visualize the sequence and impact of events, making it easier to understand cause and effect, recognize patterns, and connect historical events to their own experiences.
Alternatives include creating timeline posters for gallery walks, building digital timelines using online tools, or combining multiple templates to let students personalize how they present information.
