Timelines can be extremely useful in a classroom, especially for visual and tactile learners. They help make events, especially in history, make sense. They give you perspective on the bigger picture of life, people, and history. Timelines can be a good main point review for students, as well as being a good way of condensing a lot of material.
Timelines though are certainly useful in more than just history though. They can be used to represent eras in literature or they ca be used to represent a timeline of discoveries in the science field and much more. They can even be used to illustrate the plot of a book you have read to your classroom.
