Today, students created a timeline. In the past, I've provided students with excerpts about the exact events I want them to use and they summarize the most important parts. After talking about self-regulation at Rhonda Bondie's PD, I wanted to get the students to have even more of a hand in determining what events are the most important. I quickly Googled 2 timelines of women's history, which is what my students would probably do if asked to find a timeline on their own. (I used these: 1 & 2 - I copied them into word documents, posted below). They then created posters for each of the most important events and put them in chronological order as a class. Agenda
§ GROUP 2: 1903-1936 (2 pgs + 1st event on DigHistory, 1 pg of infoplease) = 3 pages § GROUP 3: 1955-1976 (p. 6 & half of pg. 7 on DigHistory, pgs. 3-4 & 1st 2 events of p. 5 on infoplease) = 3.75 pages § GROUP 4: 1978-Today (most of pg. 5, 6 on DigHistory, last 3 events on pg. 7 of infoplease) = 2.25 pages
