The Advantages of Using a Timeline

Timelines can be adapted to any grade level and all kinds of subjects. They provide a visual representation of how an historical period or event unfolded. Encouraging your child to incorporate timelines into their studying process will help them do the following:

  • Create a coherent narrative that is easier to visualize and memorize
  • Connect ideas and events, which fosters a broader understanding of an era or a complex episode
  • Situate an event in time: how long it lasted, what happened before and afterwards, and how much time separated a series of events
  • Track their progress in a concrete way, which boosts motivation
  • Break up the review of a big subject into smaller, more manageable chunks
  • Adopt a structured approach to studying so they feel better prepared for their exams
  • Etc.
