Last week our second graders started their life timelines.
Earlier on in the week, we read a short reading passage about timelines so that
we could better understand what a timeline is and how we can use timelines.
After reading this passage, students better understood what they would be creating.
Students were given a large blank piece of paper with a line
through the middle. It was their job to fill in different events along with
their dates to complete a timeline of their lives. Before students began, they
ordered the events of their lives as first, second, third, etc. Students wrote
things such as when they were born, when they first started walking and
talking, when they learned how to ride a bike, and many other events on their
timelines.
Once students had filled in all of this information on their
timeline they could either draw pictures to go along with the events or glue on
pictures they had brought from home. All of these timelines are now being
showcased in the hallway outside of our classroom. Feel free to visit and read
through our timelines!
