Add some pizzazz to your classroom this year! This creative resource came about as a special request for a teacher friend. She wanted a way to display a timeline with all her social studies units for the year for her 3rd-grade classroom (CKLA).
As we worked on this unit, other ideas for activities emerged until we ended up with this final resource with 60 photo posters and related activities. I hope you enjoy using it as a learning tool in your classroom too!
The photo posters can be used in many different ways.
Some ideas:
✔ Display them around the classroom in chronological order to refer back to throughout the year
✔ Post them as a bulletin board display for each domain/unit
✔ Display them as you work on each domain then add them to the timeline that circles around the classroom.
✔ Use them to introduce each domain/unit
Timelines can be a confusing concept for younger students. There are several timeline activities included to help students grasp this concept. There are 3 different timeline activity pages included in this pack. I have included two different versions of each timeline. One is a cut, sort, and glue activity that matches the dates on the photo posters—great as an activity for centers. The other one is a blank timeline so students can write in their own dates and information for important historical events.
There are 60 Photo Posters for the following domains included:
✔ World Rivers
✔ Ancient Rome Civilization
✔ The Vikings
✔ Earliest Americans
✔ Canada
✔ Exploration in North America
✔ Life in the 13 Colonies
This is a companion resource and instructional tool for Core Knowledge Third Grade-Engage NY classrooms.
