Measurements:
What does it mean to be equidistant?
To have the same measurement.
If I have:
-1836,1235,1750 and 1454
What would be their order in a CE timeline?
1235, 1454, 1750 and 1836
Do the events go above or below the line?
Below
Where should the arrows be located at?
At both ends of the horizontal line.
By how much do you need to divide your aproximation?
By four
To what number should you approximate to?
To the closest one that helps you be divisible by 4.
If I have the dates:
-180,200,140 and 328
What would be their order in a BCE timeline?(from right to left)
328, 200, 180 and 140
Do the dates go above or below the line?
Above.
What is the measurement of the middle lines in the timeline?
2cm.
What dates are you supposed to subtract?
The most recent date by the oldest.
How much does your horizontal line need to measure?
More than 16cm
What is the diference between the lines and the line segments?
Lines indicate the dates and the line segments are the space between them.
No
What are the two operations you need to do in a CE timeline? What about a BCE?
CE: subtraction and division
BCE: addition and subtraction
If you have a CE year what do you do?
(Add or subtract)

What are the numbers that you need to use to make an equidistant timeline?
0,4,8,12,16
What are the arrows at the end of the line for?
To indicate that there is further more dates/time.
How much do you add from one event line to the other for them to be equidistant?
The answer you get on your division, always the same.
What is the measurement of the last lines located in both sides of the timeline?
4cm.
If you have the number 67 as a result of your subtratcion, what do you do next?
Approximate to 72 or 80
What are the easiest numbers to approximate to?
Numbers ending in 2,4,8,0
Why are the lines at the end on both sides longer than the ones between?
Only for a more asethetic purpose and for it to be clear where the beggining and the end of the timeline is located.
In what direction does the BCE dates increase from?
