The Shorter Word Timeline of World HistoryThe timeline is 8 pages: 1 page for each of six millenniums, plus a cover page, and a back page for the new millennium 2000. It is Biblically based and uses the dates for creation close to the date used by Orthodox Jews and in sync with a conservative, creation science based approach. View the Timeline and download The best way to hold the pages is to put them front-to-back into 4 clear plastic page covers in a 3-pronged report folder. Print front to back on card stock (so images don't show through from the other side), or keep it on separate pages and simply put them in the page holders front to back. Either way works fine, but I like the look and feel of the cardstock and it's what I use for my history class. Feel free to email me if you have any questions or comments. laurie@theshorterword.com |
