Concept maps are tools for organising and representing knowledge.* Timelines – a type of concept map – serve as a kind of template to help students to organise knowledge and structure information visually. They are one more tool we can pass on to our young learners to help them to assimilate organisational skills, thereby helping them to pass information from short-term memory into long-term.
Concept maps are most effective when there is a definite focus on the subject or question. Students work most effectively when there is reference to some particular question they need to answer or some situation or event that they need to understand. In this respect, when we begin with a key question (driving question, enquiry question, etc.) to present the topic the students are about to begin, we help students to retain information in a more profound manner.
This scaffold presents the steps you can use to make information visible. As history is a concept that is too abstract for young learners to understand, we use here their own lives as the subject for the activity. You can augment their timelines with information about famous women in history, celebrating the International Women’s Day, which is recognised on 8 March of each year.
