While I was working on my project this past week and reading the class text I came across a great site for electronically generating a timeline. At the present time I don't have a use for this site because of where I am with the curriculum but I made a note to myself that this would be a great tool when my students write their explorer reports later this fall. The site is easy to use and I think that my fifth graders will be excited about the professional quality of the outcome! I was so happy to be able to find a useful resource that I could easily plug into my curriculum. This has always been one of my personal qualms about technology: finding a useful, meaningful, and timely way to incorporate it into what I'm doing. Our class text has been extremely helpful at showing me ways to do that!

For anyone else who is interested the site is www.ourtimelines.com
