This activity focuses on the idea of a time capsule - what would your students put in a time capsule to be opened in the past? The resource features three formats:
What eight items would you put in a time capsule, and why?
What six items would you put in a time capsule, and how would people react if they discovered it 100 years ago?
What six items would you put in a time capsule, and how would the people in the historical society in your novel or story react if they dug it up?
This makes this set of worksheets suitable for one-off lessons, or linked to historical study, or linked specifically to the study of a novel or story.
All worksheets are provided in US letter size and UK A4 size, and also as a Google Docs editable version.
