Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
Just wondering what size of paper you used to make your timeline for Beyond? Thanks so much for the info.

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
We have just started ours on a regular 8 x 11 sheet of copy paper.
It is what we have most abundantly and I don't see why it wouldn't work. Might be nice if on stiffer paper.

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
We've done Beyond twice... the first time I did a plain sheet of printer paper and separated it into the different blocks.... Jayden couldn't really do it well in there...
The second time through with her I did each year on a separate piece of printer paper and put them in a row on the wall... she had more room to write/draw like that and she could more easily see how the events happened over time.

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
I taped some banner paper together and ended up with a paper about 22 x 17 inches. I then divided it according to the directions. My boxes are about 3 1/4 x 2 1/2 inches. I have to admit we are cheating, ds draws the pictures and colors them on a normal piece of paper then I scan it smaller and we cut it out and tape in on the square. Seems easier for him to do it that way.

Hi John'smom!
Here is how we did Riley's Beyond Timeline:

I bet you are getting excited to start Beyond. Our school year start is just around the corner too, and I'm getting excited, but also wondering how I'm going to get done all I thought I would with non-school-related projects before we start (mainly things to do with the house). Sometimes it's a blessing just to start though, as those house-related things could never truly have an end.
I hope you have a great start!
In Christ,
Julie

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
We use regular printer paper. So far ds seems to handle drawing and writing okay in the boxes, though I did have to show him how to write it a bit smaller or go down to the next line to start bigger words (like Augustine in St. Augustine).

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
Highjack here
We are starting Beyond on Monday with a 1st grader and 2nd grader. Should we do a timeline for each one or can they do a timeline together??? I'm thinking together but wondering if there would be a good reason to have their own.
Thanks!

It would probably be more fun for them to each have their own. My two, each have their own, and they enjoy drawing their own little picture and labeling it.

Thanks for all the info, ladies.
Misty, I'm doing Beyond with two and I'm having them each do their own timelines. They won't be HUGE or anything, so I personally think it will allow them to take personal ownership over it therefore wanting to show others and talk about it which only helps the dates stick in their heads better. KWIM? Plus you can save them as a keepsake for each dc.![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: Julie or others-Beyond Timeline?
Last year, I was doing Beyond with three children. They each had their own timeline. They were each able to draw their own pics in each box and write in the date and title. It helped them to better retain the info when they were each doing it themselves.
