Time Capsule Wonders

Imagine you found a Time Capsule from the past. Detail what items you find in it and tell the story of the person who buried it.

This prompt encourages historical thinking and imaginative deduction. Students will infer information from the objects they ‘find,’ which allows them to step into another time and place. In this manner, not only are students creating a narrative, but they are building bridges between the past, present, and future.
