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. You can also make a timeline of your whole life, starting with when you were a tiny baby!
Timelines help us remember the past and look forward to the future. They show us how things have changed over time. Scientists and historians use timelines to keep track of important events in history.
- You can make a timeline about anything, from your day to the whole history of the world!
- The longest timelines cover billions of years.
- Even your school schedule is a kind of timeline!
