History
Each crowning goes on the line where it happened, so you can see Edward VI and Mary I reigned only a few years each.
School
Make one for a history topic and hand it in, or print it for the classroom wall.
Exam revision
Before a test, cover the cards and try to say what happened at each date on the line.
