Timeline Characters for Volume 3 contain cut-outs of 150 people studied in Volume III such as Civil War, authors, inventors, Olympic champions, and more!

(Characters only; need Century Lines)

Timelines are powerful visual tools that: Provide a framework for history, let children “build” history as they learn one character at a time, use characters for hands-on learning and games, teach blocks of history: Patriarch period (Bible timeline); and Explorers period, use colourful, memorable symbols, like Luther nailing his 95 theses to door, Bathsheba in a bathtub, Columbus with telescope, flag and map, and Leonardo holding MonaLisa and paint brush. The timelines cover global history (e.g. Squanto of American History living concurrently with Shakespeare of English drama and Galileo of science.) Each character is approximately 2-3/4″ tall.
