* The basics * Timelines This edition designed for individual student use and & self-checking: answers included.

* What is it used for? A timeline is used to show historical events in chronological order. Chronological Order = The order in which events occur.

* How does it get set up? Events go in order from left to right, or top to bottom. Beginning and end dates should be clearly marked. Year marks should be placed on the line in even intervals (1 year, 10 years, 100 years, 1000 years... depends on length of timeline). Events may be written directly above or below the line. Be sure the year each event happened is clear.

5000 B.C.E B.C.E.3000 B.C.E.2000 B.C.E. Like this....

OR this B.C.E B.C.E.2000 B.C.E.1000 B.C.E B.C.E B.C.E B.C.E.2000 B.C.E.

* AND DEFINITELY NOT THIS!!!! 8000 B.C.E B.C.E C.E.1000 B.C.E. All of these rules are designed to help timeline accurately make a VISUAL of the passage of time. So you can easily SEE which events came first, and the passage of time between each event.

* On your paper, draw a timeline starting at 4000 B.C.E. and ending at 4000 C.E. * Include a hash mark to indicate every 1000 years! * When you are finished, go to to the next page to check your answer.

3000 B.C.E B.C.E B.C.E C.E C.E C.E B.C.E C.E.  Years are labeled B.C.E. or C.E.  All of the above years are labeled.  Hash marks are evenly spaces.  A “zero” is included.  All years are clear and easy to read. Check with a partner!

* The battle of: B.C. and A.D. vs. B.C.E. and C.E. It’s starting to look like alphabet soup!

B.C. and A.D. * B.C. stands for “before Christ” * A.D. stands for “anno domini” which means “year of our Lord” * Originally used by Christian historians from Western Europe. B.C.E. and C.E. * B.C.E. means “before common era” * C.E. means “common era” * Used by most historians today (more politically correct because not focused on 1 religion). Both are used to differentiate between ancient and more modern history.

A.D. does NOT mean “after dinosaurs” or “after death,” although many students use those as memory tricks! Your turn – do #2 on worksheet! Then, check next page for answers.

B.C.E. and C.E. can be thought of as negative and positive numbers on a number line. 500 B.C.E. 100 B.C.E C.E. 100 C.E Think about it: 1.How many years passed between 100 B.C.E. and 100 C.E.? 2.How many years passed between 100 C.E. and 500 C.E. ?

Events in B.C.E.Events in C.E. Extinction of dinosaurs Building of pyramids Invention of the wheel American Revolution Life of MLK, Jr. World War II

* How much time has passed? 3000 B.C.E B.C.E B.C.E C.E C.E C.E How many years passed between 2000 B.C.E. and 3000 C.E.? Hint: add the numbers on both sides of the zero. 4. How many years passed between 2000 C.E. and 3000 C.E.? Hint: subtract the smaller number from the bigger number. # 1 # 2

* How much time has passed? 3000 B.C.E B.C.E B.C.E C.E C.E C.E How many years passed between 2000 B.C.E. & 3000 C.E.? Hint: add the numbers on both sides of the zero. 4. How many years passed between 2000 C.E. & 3000 C.E.? Hint: subtract the smaller number from the big. # 1 # 2 Answer: 5000 years Answer: 1000 years

* Sample Timeline: History of Paper First form of paper created in China. 150 B.C.E. Paper arrives in the Middle East 701 C.E. First newspaper in China 748 C.E. Paper used in Egypt 800 C.E. 1 st known printed book 868 C.E. Paper used in Spain 950 C.E. The line break shows a gap in the timeline. 700 C.E. 800 C.E.900 C.E.

Try your knowledge: 5. Where would the “0” year be placed on this timeline? 6. How many years passed between paper being created and arriving in the Middle East? 7. How many years passed between paper being used in Egypt & arriving in Spain? First form of paper created in China. 150 B.C.E. Paper arrives in the Middle East 701 C.E. First newspaper in China 748 C.E. Paper used in Egypt 800 C.E. 1 st known printed book 868 C.E. Paper used in Spain 950 C.E. 700 C.E. 800 C.E.900 C.E.

Try your knowledge - Answers 5. Where would the “0” year be placed on this timeline? In the “gap” between 1 st and 2 nd event. 6. How many years passed between paper being created and arriving in the Middle East? 851 years – add to get your answer 7. How many years passed between paper being used in Egypt and arriving in Spain? 150 years – subtract to get your answer
