Part B Creating an illustrated time chart
Step 1 .What is a time chart
A time chart should be a chart marked with time periods and important events that take place in certain time periods
Step 2 . Example
A common history between UK and France
“ Down the centuries, the histories of both countries often interlocked and sometimes merged. The Vikings fought King Albert in 871 and besieged Paris in 885. William of Normandy conquered much of England in 1066. From 1154 to 1485 England was under Anjou-Plantagenet rule. French monastic orders founded many abbeys and priories in Britain, including St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall, built in 1135 by the Abbot of Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy. For many years, English monarchs laid claim to much of France - a dispute resolved only in 1453 with the end of the Hundred Years’ War. Calais remained under English rule until 1558. After the Reformation and Henry VIII , the churches in France and England took separate paths.
The 19th century saw the peak of the European powers’ colonial expansion, often in competition.
The 20th century saw the two powers embark on genuine long-term cooperation through the Entente Cordiale.”
