Bulletin board timeline ideas

Have I mentioned how much I LOVE teaching Social Studies? American History has seriously turned into one of my biggest passions over the last year! The first 4-5 weeks we are working on States and Regions. We culminate this unit with our State Float Project (read more about it here) so in perpetration for that, I teach the regions through stations that put those research skills to work!

We added to our timeline after learning about each piece of history. #historyclassroom Road trip through history! Bulletin board.

Bulletin Board - Looking back. Made with timeline of famous people. 3rd Grade. Eyeballs made from paper and clear desert plates.

Inspired by THIS pin and a new social studies standard, I created this kindergarten year timeline. Each month my team puts up pictures of our activities. At the end of the year I use this timeline to have my students write about their year. Get this freebie in my Teachers Pay Teachers Store. BONUS: I also used these to label my monthly activity tubs. ANOTHER BONUS: This timeline matches my birthday posters.

Print out famous people's heads and use for a biography report. Love this writing idea for third and fourth grade.

Timeline project- Another cute way to practice creating timelines and showing students examples! Students could be given a specific number of events relating to the Pilgrims journey and the New World leading up to the Revolutionary War and be required to place them in chronological order. Creative and fun social studies event to end a unit! SG

Grade 2. Content Statement: Time can be shown graphically on calendars and timelines. Literature: "Diary of a Fly" by Doreen Cronin. The activity relates to social studies because students will have to be able to create and comprehend timelines. Even though the book is more diary entries, students will be able to create a timeline to show how their lives have changed over time.
