Timelines with PowerPoint:

  •  Presidents during Wartime.ppt Presidents during Wartime is a PowerPoint activity that asks students to use a timeline to match US Presidents to wars during their presidencies. Macros must be enabled for this to work properly. Mac users may still be able to use the activity but won't be able to enter information to the slides when in Slideshow mode.
  •  MLK Timeline 2.ppt Create a timeline of the life of Dr. Martin Luther King with this PowerPoint slideshow: The directions tell you to use the Slide Sorter to put the slides in order. You could also print out the slides (from the Print Menu, select Handouts, 2 per page) and have students arrange them in order.
