What is Involved in Timeline Building?Timeline Building Offers Students a Chance to
Get to Know the Flow of History through TimeTimeline building offers students a chance to get to know the flow of history by recording dates and events into a timeline book. Students write in their timeline book as they learn key events and their significance in their main program. They can also write in dates important to them personally, such as family events or things they learn in their own reading time.
All New “Timelines in History” with “Old Map" Illustrations | TIME | $24
WinterPromise offers you a unique timeline resource, our “Timelines in History.” It is copied on heavyduty cardstock and should last a student throughout their school years. Each student usually enjoys having his own, as it is a personal journal in which they can record any information they’d like.
Our timeline differs from other similar resources in two key ways that help you with introducing “notebooking” into your studies. First, each page doesn’t just contain endless rows of meaningless numbers; instead, on each page are beautiful illustrated banners and 2-3 descriptors of major movements, civilizations or events in history. From the “Middle Kingdom of Egypt” or “The Age of Exploration” to “The Industrial Revolution,” these descriptors aid your student in true understanding of how history flows and relates to real events.
The second distinctive feature is its loose-leaf nature; it is three-hole punched and copied on only one side. This feature provides a blank spread in between each date spread. This means your student can file “Make-Your-Own” history pages, artwork, reports and more in between their timeline pages. Year after year, they’ll collect “Make-Your-Own” pages and their own work in this one resource. They’ll literally “Make-Their-Own” history book that will serve as a scrapbook of homeschool memories they’ll never want to part with.
Timeline Figures - Choose an Option that’s Right for You!
Timeline figures are a fun way to add to the color and flavor of a timeline book.
Students cut out and paste the figures into their own “Timelines in History.” This year we’re offering you two choices for your Timeline figures: WinterPromise’s own colored timeline figures are available for some sets, and we also have larger sets created by Homeschool in the Woods. With each of our history-based studies, we also provide a week-by-week schedule that tells you when to use each figure (no matter which one you purchase).

Beautiful Maps to Reproduce | MAPS | $19As you create your “Make-Your-Own” History book, you’ll want to include maps of the places and events you’re studying. These incredibly beautiful maps are perfect for recording what you’ve learned.
Why? These amazing maps are fully reproducible, so you’ll be able to create maps for your entire family. You’ll also be able to create multiple maps of each region, so if you want to show early Greek city-states on the Ancient Rome map, you can use another copy to map out Alexander the Great’s conquests, and still another for Paul’s missionary journeys.
Next, the copies you make can be hole-punched to insert into your “Timelines in History” resource, and for use with your “Make-Your-Own” History pages. You also have the freedom to copy them onto different colors for different regions, if you’d like, or on heavier cardstock papers for durability. You could also get them copied in larger sizes for a regional study.
Finally, you get so many! This 17-map set includes Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome, Ancient China, Ancient Egypt, Ancient Israel, all the continents, the Middle East, Canada, Central America, political & physical maps of the United States, and a world map.
Learn world geography by drawing the continents with memory tools that help students get acquainted with the countries of the world and recall where to place the continent on latitude and longitude lines. Practical suggestions allow students to practice in small steps and gain mastery of drawing the continents with their country boundaries. This stand-alone resource can be used over the course of a year or several years for grades 3-12. Recommended for “Children Around the World.” Consumable.
