Lesson 2: Chronological Order

Examining life events is a great way to learn about chronological order. Sequencing and time order are analyzed after reading a book about Rosa Parks. With a chart, the class works together to put the events from Mrs. Parks' life in the correct order. I like the lesson because it works to reinforce social studies content as well as an ELA concept.
