Hi again,
Another website for you try. This is the best timeline builder I have seen so far on the net, it offers much more flexibility that timetoast, the last one I reported on. Timelines are an excellent way for students to visualise and arrange events graphically and have use across all KLA's at some point.

Enjoy!

A must-visit site for teachers
Hi again -
I was just forwarded a link to a site that is one of the most powerful and simple sites I've visited. I think all teachers should look at it, whilst some of the humanities teachers could use it in almost every unit of their work.
It basically pulls together data on each country and can display it graphically various forms, producing some highly interesting results. You can also slide along a timeline to view how the results have changed over time, adds another dimension to the results. Enough, explaining, time to start playing!

I hope you enjoy it!
