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. 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. ** Special Note: It is often difficult for students to place abolitionist personalities in time--Frederick Douglass was one of the first to gain public attention, followed by Sojourner Truth. Harriet Tubman's work in support of the Underground Railroad was secretive and difficult to place precisely, but William Lloyd Garrison's praise of her is in the public record of the time.**
