Activity: MY PERSONAL TIMELINE

A personal timeline portrays the influential events and happenings of a person’s life so that
he can understand where he has gone wrong and right in the past. It helps to plan the future in a
better constructive way.

Instruction: Using your notebook, write the major events in your life and the significant
people in your life. You may add your age, specific dates and places. You may draw the timeline
horizontally, vertically, diagonally or even using ups and down depending on your imagination. Be
creative in your representations. You may also use symbols, figures and drawings. Think of a title for
your personal timeline. You may use crayons or art materials depending on the available resources
or just a simple paper and pen may be fine.
