8th Grade US History (Period 5) Assignments

 

 

 

 

Timeline project:

 

Students will choose an event or person that we studied over the course of this past year, and they will create a timeline with 25 parts, detailing the life of the person or the structure of the event. Each part needs to include a picture and 2-3 sentences explaining the significance of that event. 

 

 

I would recommend using either of these 2 sites to create your timeline, however if you would like to use another program or complete it on paper, check in with me so I can give you the okay.
