Social studies ideas stick best when students reason through real examples. This set gives your Grade 6-8 class ninety questions on understanding historical time.
Students will answer questions such as "What is the significance of the year 476 AD in European history?", "Which of the following events is often seen as the end of the Medieval Period?", and "Why is the study of historical time important for understanding modern society?"
All three worksheets cover the same topic in different question styles. That means you can use one as a pretest, another for practice or homework, and the third as a follow up quiz, without students ever seeing the same question twice.
This set is part of a complete social studies unit. The unit also covers Primary and Secondary Sources, Cause and Effect in History, Historical Inquiry Process, Historical Empathy, Civilizations and Empires, and Colonialism and Imperialism, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 6-8 social studies classes, and for review at any point in the school year.
