EASY – JUST PRINT, CUT, ASSEMBLE! This WOMEN IN SCIENCE TIMELINE PROJECT has everything you need for students to create a timeline or bulletin board. A variety of scientists from around the world are included with dates ranging from 1200 BCE through today.

Here’s the Process for Students:

• Tape or glue together the provided timeline templates (several 8.5″x11″ sheets)
• Color code the 35 biography boxes according to the field of science
• Attach biography boxes to the timeline
• Enter the dates
• Add pictures (provided) to each of the entries

What’s Included:

• 35 Biography boxes for students to complete (for Version One)
• 35 Pre-made scientist biography boxes (for Version Two)
• 35 Scientist pictures
• Printable timeline templates
• Student instructions
• Teacher instructions

Teacher Notes:

• This project works well when assigned as a paired project.
• As printed (several 8.5″x11″ pages), this timeline is almost 5 feet long, so it also makes a great Women’s History Month bulletin board.
• NO COLOR PRINTING IS REQUIRED! The pictures look better in color, but print fine in black and white. The information boxes are colored by students with colored pencils.
• The only supplies necessary are copier paper, glue, and colored pencils.
• Please note: This resource is NOT editable.
