Honors World History
Semester Project
Timeline Notebook
Materials:
- 80-100 page
composition type notebook, either bound or spiral bound
- Color pencils or
fine Sharpie markers
- Ruler
- Unlined paper or
unlined index cards
- Glue stick
Over the course of our “march through
civilization” we will create an annotated timeline showing when major
civilizations and events took place.
This will aid in our comparison of civilizations and hopefully lead to a
better understanding of where we are in history and give us a better grasp of
periodization/chronology.
I will establish the perimeters of time for each
double page spread and give a list of required events. You will have the opportunity to add to this
list based on your own interests. Of the
events I list you will be required to annotate a certain number of them…which
you chose will be your choice; and of course, you may annotate more than what
is required.
What does it mean to annotate? Simply summarize the importance/significance
of the event and its impact on history/civilization/or the society in which it
occurred.
You may add pictures, hand drawn or clip art, to
enhance your timeline. Many of you are
visual learners so this will help you remember the events as well as “jazz up”
your timeline.
Timelines will be collected twice each nine weeks
and will count as a test grade.
Refer to the back of this sheet for the rubric
that will be used in grading your timeline notebook. Remember if you do the basic requirements you
will only get a C; going above and beyond will earn you the B or A.
