Timeline of My Life Project

Please have students complete this project at home. Begin with the day your child was born and continue on with any important life events such as Christening, Siblings Birthdays, 1st Soccer Game, Dance Recital etc. The last event should be something that happened this year. You may use real pictures or color the events with crayons or markers. This project will be displayed in the hallway so I expect students to do their best work on it! Please assemble the timeline before sending it back to school!
