Timeline of Life

I will admit that the Timeline of Life is one of my favorite Montessori lessons. It's a large timeline that shows various organisms and the periods of time they lived in. Kids that like dinosaurs love this lesson. There are a lot of other neat animals too like the Giant Kangaroo and Trilobites. The timeline was introduced a few weeks ago. This morning we took the next step. Building the timeline for ourselves!
