Lesson+6+-+Building+Timelines

__History/Social Studies__: Timelines A timeline activity will help students make sense of the important events that occurred in the National Park they research. Begin this activity by sharing with the resource National Park Service History Timeline , a history of the national Park system. Students can use this resource and other research to create a timeline of the park. There are a variety of ways for students to create timelines. However, consider setting requirements such as: include 15 major events in chronological order and include an image for each event. The images could be hand drawn or found.
