Description

These Geologic Time Scale science doodle notes help middle school students understand Earth’s vast history by visually organizing major eras, periods, and key events in Earth’s past. Students actively process deep-time concepts using visual note-taking, labeling, and structured diagrams, making abstract geological timelines easier to understand and remember. This resource works especially well as science centers activities, sub plans, early finisher work, review practice, and interactive notebook pages.

What are doodle notes??

Doodle notes are a visual note-taking strategy that will increase student engagement, focus, creativity and concept retention. Recent studies have found that doodling or taking visual notes while studying science material can help enhance learning, engagement, and reasoning. Teaching students to use doodling in class will help them remember more, focus on the topics at hand and generally enjoy the lessons more.

Lead your class through the worksheet with the included reading and powerpoint, or assign independently and review when they are finished. This assignment would also make great sub plans!

Your students will be completely engaged with this doodling activity!
