A time capsule is a container filled
with items that you can bury in the
ground. Later, archeologists
anthropologists, and historians can dig
it up and get a snapshot of life at a
particular time. We are living in a
historic moment that you may want to
share with a future generation 100 years
from now. For this reason, you will create
your own time capsule. You need to select
one item that represents what kids your
age are doing for fun when they're stuck
at home. You need to select one item that
says something about popular culture. It
could relate to movies, video games, music,
books, or television. But it has to be
something that is popular right now. You
need to select one item that people seem
to cherish more during the quarantine
than any other time before. You need to
select one item that relates
specifically to your family or your
culture. Finally, you need to include
some kind of documentation of daily life.
It could be a to-do list or a daily
schedule from home. It might be a receipt
of something that you bought. It might be
a journal entry sharing how you feel
about this time. Keep in mind that your
items need to last at least 100 years.
They also need to say something about
the present moment. The more specific
and personal the better. Now describe all
five items for future generations.
Include a few sentences about what each
item is and why you chose it. Remember
that they won't have the same background
knowledge you have so you'll need to be
clear, specific, and descriptive in your
explanations.
