How would you like to travel through time? Place these nine inventions, discoveries, or events in chronological order. Use cause-and-effect thinking to place the cards. You may magnify the text or image of an item by dragging it to the center of the clock face. You are welcome to open a new tab to research background information before you answer during the game. ** Special Note: The Emancipation Proclamation event will fit into the timeline using either of the two dates students may research--announced September 22, 1862, signed and taking effect January 1, 1863. ** Silence the introductory music by pressing "s." You choose your skill level: Time Scout (2 hints), Time Turner (1 hint), or Time Lord (no hints). You may also set the timer from 1 to 9 minutes.
