George Washington Timeline worksheet for children to learn about his life events in chronological order.

To solve this timeline problem, we need to put the events of George Washington’s life in the correct order — from earliest (1) to latest (5).

Let’s list the events and think about when they happened:

1. George Washington is born.
→ This must be first. He was born in 1732.

2. George Washington marries Martha Curtis.
→ He married Martha Dandridge Custis (note: her last name was Custis, not Curtis — but we’ll go with what’s written) in 1759. So this comes after his birth.

3. Washington leads the army in the Revolutionary War.
→ The Revolutionary War happened from 1775–1783. He became commander-in-chief in 1775. So this is after his marriage.

4. George Washington becomes the 1st US President.
→ He was elected president in 1789 and served two terms until 1797. So this is after the war.

5. George Washington dies at his home.
→ He died on December 14, 1799, at Mount Vernon. This is the last event.

So the correct order is:

- Born → 1
- Marries Martha → 2
- Leads army in Revolutionary War → 3
- Becomes 1st President → 4
- Dies at home → 5

Now let’s match that to each row:

Row 1: “Washington leads the army in the Revolutionary war.” → Should be 3

Row 2: “George Washington is born.” → Should be 1

Row 3: “George Washington dies at his home.” → Should be 5

Row 4: “George Washington marries Martha Curtis.” → Should be 2

Row 5: “George Washington becomes the 1st US President.” → Should be 4

Final Answer:
Row 1: 3
Row 2: 1
Row 3: 5
Row 4: 2
Row 5: 4
