SonshineLearner Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Memorizing a Timeline.... If you've done that, what do you suggest? I'd like one around 150-170 points, if possible. I'm thinking it'd be nice to start with only actually memorizing part a year, but not set on that. Thanks!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kchara Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 :lurk5::bigear: I read about this last night in The Core, and I was wondering, too. I have NO dates memorized from my own education, and I'd like my kids to do slightly better than I did. :tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tap Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Veritas Press timeline cards have memory songs that go with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MamaT Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 I have 100 dates that I required my kids to memorize. When we were first learning them, I typed up 10 at a time to learn in our regular a.m. memory time. Once those were learned well, they got 10 more. The ones already learned are put in our review rotation (with our poetry, scripture, etc.). This method has worked well for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaLisa Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 When we first began homeschooling 13 years ago, we memorized the cards of the VP cycle. However, we've not kept it up and I think they remember only the critical dates. :tongue_smilie: But, I hope to do it again with my youngest two in the next few years and will use the VP cards (history only; not Bible).
