Tuesday

You have been put in charge of building a time capsule. This capsule will be opened 500 years from now. What items are you going to place within in this capsule? Think about such things as: what items are important to us? how do we communicate? who are our leaders/idols? etc.

  10. a ton of pictures from today(fashion, vehicles, leaders, ect.)
    a cell phone
    a journal from someone during this time
    an iPad full of information from today
    a digital camera

    and not only would I put new and inventive things, but also things like conflicts, wars, and other tragedies so the future can learn from past mistakes.

  11. I would probably put fake newspapers in there, to play a joke on the future. I think that would be super super super funny. Also I would make a collage of our newest technologies so they can laugh at it and compare it to the future's technology. I would also like to put pictures of myself and those closest to me, and a dairy...so maybe I could become famous like Ann Frank.

    And maybe I'd throw in a cookie. :)

  12. I would put in a cell phone and a upod for sure so that they can see what we used back in this time. I'd also put in a raidio and cd's to show them what kind of music we had. I would put pictures of myself and my family so they would know who i was as well. I mean i could always put in a file on the presidents and things like that but in the future i'm sure they'll already have it documented.

  16. I would put in a cell phone, iPhone, some fashion magazine (because that is definitely going to change in 500 years), a few books, a bunch of random pictures, a journal, portraits of recent presidents, a pair of shoes, and … yeah. Anything that would characterize our world during this time in a positive way would go in there pretty much.
