History Timeline Friezes, Activity Books and CDs

Our History Timelines Friezes, which are accompanied by Activity Books and CDs, will help your pupils develop a ‘mental map’ of the past, whilst broadening their use of historical vocabulary and their chronological understanding. Each timeline consists of a series of four large posters that, once assembled together, create a fantastic full-colour frieze which will enhance the walls of any classroom, corridor or assembly hall.

Each set of timelines has a corresponding Activity Book (containing teacher’s notes and pupils’s activity sheets based on the timeline) and a CD. The latter carries an electronic PDF version of the Activity Book and the Timelines, enabling you to project all the material on to a whiteboard for whole-class teaching. This also enables you to zoom in and out of each timeline and scroll backwards & forwards.

The Timelines, Activity Books and CDs form one whole package for which you do not need a site licence.
