I am soooo confused!
Steps to making a time line
1. List all the dates or events in chronological order
2. Decide your book end dates that will encompass your events
3. Draw a line between your book end dates and then break that
line into equal intervals
4. Place your events on the line in chronological order
5. Look over time line and make a title
1492 Columbus lands in America
1607 Jamestown is founded
1620 Mayflower lands
step 1
1776 Declaration of Independence
1787 Constitution is written
Step 2... Book ends dates ....1450 and 1800
1450
1500
1550
