The Collegiate Collie Remembers United States History: Timeline Verses to Remember from Marco Polo Through the Establishment of the First Thirteen English Colonies in the United States
()
About this ebook
As an educator of United States history, it was my experience that students struggled with where, in a sequence, an event occurred and why the event was important in the sequence. They would likely forget it. I recalled how the Columbus verse helped me gain a foothold on a particular date, so I made the timelines for my students, and we recited and used them in class.
My hope is that this book may help other learners as they construct mental schemes in remembering key historical events and, in the process, find that other dates may be mentally anchored to the specific years to help the retention along.
The Collegiate Collie wishes you the best in learning and remembering history!
