& 23 - Timeline
1600 - 1775 Review with students the layout and purpose of a timeline. Be sure students understand how the flow of time is shown in this visual format. The dates shown in the answer key below are for your reference, and students do not need to list them on their timeline or the timeline guide. Point out to students that the column on the right shows the rulers of England. Scotland joined with England in 1707, forming Great Britain, so after that date, these are called the kings and queens of Great Britain.
