What is a time capsule? It is a container that is filled with things (such as newspapers, or clothing) from the present time, put in a safe place, and that is meant to be opened at some time in the future.
*Find a shoe box or other container in which you will place your completed time capsule. You may decorate it anyway you like.
* If you cannot download and print the time capsule booklet, you can create one on plain paper that you have at home or stop by school for a paper copy.
