A timeline is like a special map that tells a story about time! It is a long, straight line that shows when things happened. You can make a timeline of your very own day. First, you wake up and eat breakfast. Next, you go to school and learn new things. Last, you go home and play with your friends. Timelines help us see how one thing happens after another!
Timelines are also great for learning about history and growing up. You can make a timeline of your whole life! It can start with a picture of when you were a tiny baby. Then, it can show when you learned to walk and talk. You can even add what you want to be when you grow up! Timelines help us remember the past and look forward to the future.
