kagmypts Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 For those of you using SOTW, what do you use as a timeline program? We just started using SOTW 1, which my DS absolutely loves, but I am not seeing a timeline program. We have the activity guide as well. Am I missing it? If not, what do you recommend? Thank you!

Goldilocks Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 We used SOTW in the younger years, but I didn't start doing a timeline with my children until logic stage. I believe that is what TWTM recommends as younger children's minds just don't work that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crl Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 While you don't have to do a timeline for elementary, if you are interested in one you can certainly do it. Sonlight cores G & H use SOTW so they have timeline figures you can purchase to fit with SOTW. Also there is a yahoo group "Hannah_hs_helps" that has files for memorization cards and timeline figures to go with SOTW that you can print out.

Murrayshire Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 I use our homemade timeline for the wall with all of my kids. My youngest one particularly enjoys coloring and placing the figures. I have directions on my blog on our Classroom/Wall Timeline Page. Scroll to the bottom to see how we made it.... Fairly simple if you have the space, even if it's in one of the kids' bedroom!

73349 Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Pandia Press sells some wall timelines. You have to add in the people/events. I'm not sure where I found our cards for them, but if you Google, you should be able to find several choices. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HS Mom in NC Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 We use Wonders of Old http://www.learningthroughhistory.com/Store/CategoryTimelines.html with these timeline figures http://www.homeschoolinthewoods.com/timelinefigures.html#TimelineFiguresOnCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrself Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 For Hannah's start here. https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Hannah_hs_helps/files/HISTORY/ Then look for timeline cards under SOTW1, etc. or some are listed under ancient, medieval, early modern, etc. And wasn't there another mother here who made big half page cards for a wall timeline? I'll see if I can find that one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
