Activity 15
• Reading and writing are time-
consuming activities when done
correctly. Remember, we set 12
sessions, but the order in which
the book proposes the practices
is not fixed, so you may arrange
for this practice to last longer.
• Remind your students that
they should not damage or
destroy the materials they are
working with, especially if they
are not theirs. It is better to use
adhesive notes or flags upon
which they can write. It is not
necessary to use commercial
notes; there are several recipes
for making light glue on the
web that can be used to stick
and re-stick notes.
• Give your students the means to
check whether they chose the
most important ideas from the
texts. One way is to check the
questions they composed in the
previous activity. Another way
is to wait for the next activity,
because if many events are
covered, that may point out
unsuitable choices.
• Remind students that they cannot underline a book that is not theirs. Offer other options, such as taking
notes or using post-its.
Activity 16 T
• Help your students check the chronological order of the key events of their historical report. Some events
continue to happen over many years. One way to provide your students with help is by establishing the rack 44
best time division between events. It is important to discuss the timeline and reach agreement on it, since
this will be the basis of the report.
• One way to skip this step is if everyone decides to work on the same event. Then, each group may focus
on details of what happened on a certain date or period; another group will research the next date, and so
on. In this case, each group will have a different date.
• Remember the idea on the track (the suggestion of exchanging timelines) is one among many options for
checking the timeline. Remind them a good timeline will make a good report.
• Another way to help your students is to arrange the information on the timeline into a flow chart.
