Mary McLeod Bethune's timeline activity with events from her life to be arranged in chronological order.

Let’s look at the timeline and match each event to the correct year.

We are given five years:
1875, 1898, 1904, 1935, 1955

And five events:
- born in South Carolina
- gets married and teaches in Georgia
- opens a school for African American girls in Daytona, Florida
- starts the National Council of Negro Women
- dies in Daytona, Florida

Now let’s think about what makes sense chronologically:

1. Born — this has to be the earliest event → 1875
2. Gets married and teaches — happens after birth, likely as a young adult → 1898 (she was 23)
3. Opens a school — she started her famous school in 1904 → 1904
4. Starts the National Council of Negro Women — this happened later in her life, during the Great Depression era → 1935
5. Dies — last event → 1955

So the order from left to right should be:

→ 1875: born in South Carolina
→ 1898: gets married and teaches in Georgia
→ 1904: opens a school for African American girls in Daytona, Florida
→ 1935: starts the National Council of Negro Women
→ 1955: dies in Daytona, Florida

This matches the boxes already filled in on the worksheet — so we’re just confirming the correct order.

Final Answer:
The events are already correctly placed in chronological order under their matching years:
1875 – born in South Carolina
1898 – gets married and teaches in Georgia
1904 – opens a school for African American girls in Daytona, Florida
1935 – starts the National Council of Negro Women
1955 – dies in Daytona, Florida
