Project Ideas:
- Students can design a timeline accordion http://imaginationsoup.net/2010/08/family-timeline-accordion-book-with-recycled-materials/
- Students can create an online time capsule http://www.capzles.com
- Students can create talking avitars. One avitar will represent a person from the past. Another avitar will represent a person from the future. The students will create a monologue between the two avitars that will explain how life has changed over time http://www.voki.com
- Students can create a foldable. This foldable will have seven flaps. The student will write a clue on each flap that will lead to to the center piece. The "clues" will all be different facts/causes that lead to the "centerpiece" which is the event that was caused by all of the clues. The students will hang these in the classroom for their friends to unfold and guess which event the foldable represents. http://blog.susangaylord.com/search/label/Bookmaking%20Projects?updated-max=2012-05-07T09:32:00-04:00&max-results=20&start=8&by-date=false
- Students can create a hidden door timeline http://teachinginroom6.blogspot.com/2013/05/how-do-you-timeline.html
- Students can create a tree ring project. They will study the rings of trees- how the oldest rings are in the middle. They will then transfer this knowledge into drawing tree rings and writing down events for whatever topic they are studying with the oldest event in the middle and work their way out to the most recent events. http://eisforexplore.blogspot.com/2012/02/tree-of-life-timeline.html
