Finding historical data for your timeline

Hello beautiful students.  

Be nice to Shane and work hard 

so that you get full credit for the day

• Visit the links below

• Try to find TWO interesting historical events for each FIVE-Year period on your timeline [1955-60, 60-65,  65-70, etc...]

• Your timeline starts either at 1955 or the birth year of your oldest grandparent, you choose...

• Use a VARIETY of the timelines but stay on THESE timelines

• Take notes on the worksheets and turn in your worksheets WITH YOUR NAMES ON THEM at the end of class to receive credit.

• Remember:
• There is very little time for you to do this project.  Mess around now and you’ll be frantic while the kids who are finished sit around eating ice cream & mocking you...
