LO: To create a timeline of the space race.

Success Criteria

I know what a timeline is used for.

I can organise dates chronologically on a timeline.I can talk about events in the historyof space travel.

What is a TIMELINE?

What does CHRONOLOGICALORDER mean?

A TIMELINE shows events in theorder that they happened.

Do you remember making a TIMELINE about theevents in the Great Fire of London?

When events are in CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER itmeans that they are the same order that theyhappened.

Starting from the event that happened furthestin the past and getting closer to the present.

Can you put these years in chronological order?

TOP TIP - Split the number into two pairs ofnumbers.

1969

2017

1666

1957

Look at the first two digits first.

If some years start with the same two numbers,then look at the second two.
