Time Capsule
As a class, have students create a time capsule that describes the life of a fourth grader (any grade level would work) today by answering the following questions:
- What do you enjoy doing the most?
- What are your goals and dreams?
Have students place their journals in the time capsule with other artifacts that are important to them and their classmates. Have them write a letter explaining why they included these artifacts and put it in the capsule. Have them leave a letter with the principal of their school outlining when the capsule should be opened. It should remain unopened for at least 20 years.
