Calendar Timeline Builder

Students read an April community events calendar and then convert the listed activities into a linear timeline written in chronological order. They must sequence events from earliest to latest, demonstrating their understanding of date order, event timing, and how information is organized in calendars. After creating the timeline, students answer comprehension questions that require applying sequence knowledge, identifying what happens before or after key events, and determining monthly firsts and lasts. This activity strengthens students’ ability to interpret dates and transform calendar data into structured timelines.
