Part 1: The Timeline
1.Use Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint to create the timeline on your computer (See instructions below).

c.Do not include any dates after the defeat of the Spanish Armada.

7.Make sure the timeline has a discernible chronological scale indicating the relative passage of time. It should also be visually attractive and professional enough to be used for a presentation in a small-group setting. See the example timeline provided.
