About this resource

Description

The About Me Timeline Worksheet is a fun back to school activity that helps young students put the important events of their own lives in order. Building a personal timeline introduces the social studies skill of sequencing events by time, showing children that a timeline is a picture of events arranged from first to last. It is a warm, get-to-know-you activity for the very start of the school year.

This 1st grade back to school worksheet gives each child four spaces along a timeline. In every box they draw a picture of an important event, write the date above it on the timeline, and add a sentence describing what happened. Because every timeline is personal, there are no right or wrong answers — each child creates a unique keepsake while practicing sequencing, writing, and dates.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • A four-event timeline organizer
  • Draw-and-write space for each event

There are three reasons the About Me Timeline Worksheet helps kids learn. First, ordering their own life events makes the abstract idea of a timeline concrete and personal. Second, pairing a drawing with a sentence and a date strengthens early writing and fine-motor skills. Third, sharing finished timelines builds classroom community and speaking skills as children present the moments that matter most to them.

Teachers and parents can extend this activity in many ways. Invite children to interview a family member about the day they were born, or to bring in a baby photo for their first event. Create a class timeline on the wall that combines everyone’s big moments. Talk about words like before, after, first, and last as kids arrange their events, reinforcing sequencing all year long.
