Chronological order:
strategies for reading
look for sub / headings that may indicate c.o. such as Early Life or Later Years
look for words that identify times - in a year, 3 weeks later
look for words that signal order - first, then, during
a paragraph with c.o. will have several time order words
ask yourself: Are the events in time order?
