Description
TIMELINE is a run through memorable events, famous people, landmarks and discoveries that occurred between 1800-2020. It is educational, inspiring and informative all at the same time!
As a curriculum director, I created these lessons for my teachers and the feedback I hear is above and beyond any expectations.
It is divided into 24 units that should be done throughout a school year. Each lesson is packed with information, as well as background information for the teacher (so no extra research required here! Time saved!), over 300 historical & educational photos, plus facts.
(CHECK OUT LESSON 11 WHICH IS POSTED AS A FREE SAMPLE TO GET THE IDEA)
