Creating Timelines

A Timeline Tells a Story…

Good Timelines…. ► Are sequential (years and events are labeled in correct order!) ► Are easy to read (neat) because they were PLANNED, drafted, and THEN published! ► Represent periods of time in a PROPORTIONALLY accurate way ► Make effective use of color without overdoing it ► Use blank s p a c e to keep things easy to read: space on borders, space between labels… not… all CRAMMEDtogetherandIMPOSSIBLEtoread!

A Timeline of Mr. Kaciuba’s Life Born (1985) 1 st year of grade school (1991) 1 st year of High School (1999) Graduated High School (2003) In College at ISU ( ) 1 st year Teaching At WBO (2009)

B.C. & A.D.

B.C. or B.C.E. stands for…. ► B.C. stands for Before Christ ► B.C.E. stands for Before Common Era ► Both B.C. and B.C.E. refer to the SAME time period.

A.D. or C.E. stands for…. ► A.D. literally means anno Domini(An-o Dom in I), which means "in the year of our Lord." ► Some times you hear it being called After Death. ► C.E. stands for Common Era. ► Both A.D. and C.E. refer to the SAME time period

Talking Time Periods Today ► Today, however, with a growing understanding that not all archaeologists are Christians, some archaeologists prefer to use the terms: Before the Common Era (B.C.E.) and the Common Era (C.E.), which are exactly the same as B.C. and A.D. but have nothing to do with Christianity.

Which came first B.C. or A.D ► B.C. is the older time period meaning it came before A.D. ► The year 0 began when Jesus Christ was born. ► The year 0 is the transition point between B.C. and A.D.

Using B.C. Dates ► When working with B.C. time the numbers become smaller as you approach the present day. For example, 99 BC, 98 BC, 97BC, 96 BC, 95BC…...50BC

Using A.D. Dates ► When working with A.D. time the numbers become bigger as you approach the present day. For example, 2007 AD, 2008 AD, 2009 AD, 2010 AD….. ► 2013 AD is the year we are in right now!
