Timeline ideas
By marie

If you can find some old computer "tractor" paper, you can use one page for each year of the student's life. Spread all of the sheets out and draw a line horizontally across all of them. Then have the students label the top of each sheet with their age beginning with zero when they were born. They can mark the line vertically with important events for each year and draw pictures of those events under the line. (We draw the horizontal line about 2 inches down so there is about 6 inches underneath for pictures.) The paper folds easily and can be kept in a manila file folder. The students work on it whenever they have extra time. Good luck!
