Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 4.41 Build and Read Timelines for a Place skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

A student must create a timeline of Canyon View with school in 1905, train stop in 1920, library in 1935, and museum in 1950. Which choice best explains why equal 15-year intervals work well?

AEach event is 15 years after the one before it.

BThe events all happen in the same century.

COnly four events are allowed on a timeline.

D15 is the only interval a timeline can use.

Solution & Explanation:1905 to 1920, 1920 to 1935, and 1935 to 1950 are all 15-year gaps, so equal 15-year intervals fit the dates well.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Use the Elm Bay timeline. Two new event cards are ready: pier repair in 1982 and theater opening in 1987. Which card fits exactly on the unlabeled middle mark between 1979 and 1985?

APier repair in 1982

BTheater opening in 1987

CBoth cards fit

DNeither card fits

Solution & Explanation:The middle point between 1979 and 1985 is 1982, so the pier repair card fits there.
