A new approach to TimeLines in the Montessori Classroom

March 31, 2010

There are many beautiful and detailed timelines available to Montessori teachers and schools for the Montessori classroom.  As a display, timelines are often underused by the Montessori child.  Too many details and not enough focus can leave the student feeling intimidated and uninterested.  So Time Frame Inc. has created a blank timeline -12 1/2 feet long, duck cloth fabric, with wooden birch scrolls, 52 tick marks- that is reusable and can be scaled to accommodate the study of human history and/or personal history as well as transform into a number line.  The use of the TimeLine Scroll is only limited by your imagination.  We have designed a US History card set series to be used with the TimeLine Scroll- US Presidents, US Events, US Constitution, & US States that can be scaled out on the timeline.  They were designed in a matching format.  We have also designed an Integer I card set to give lessons and/or provide supplementary activities for learning positive and negative numbers.  There are just endless possibilities!  We will be working in the future on World History card sets.  Coming this May are 2 new card sets- Artists & Inventions.  They are designed in a “Who Am” format that can be used with or without the TimeLine Scroll.
