time capsule
You are exploring a deep ravine after a big rainstorm and see a metal box. You dig it up and open it.
Is this money for a king or a regular person?
These two children are wearing very thick coats. Was it cold when they made the time capsule?
What do you think this child wished for the people who discover this box?
Do you think the boy was sad to put the toy car in the box, or happy to share it with the future?
Do you think every family had a radio, or only a few? What did people do before the radio was popular?
If you found a skull in the woods would you put it in a box for the future? Why or why not?
Where does food come from?

The carpenter says his workspace was a mess. What did the thief trip over was it a piece of wood or a ball of string?
You found a statue made of bubbles. How did you know the sculptor didn't make it, and was the statue three-dimensional?
Thank you, Detective! One last thing how did you catch the thief?
Can you tell us, who was the young boy at the scene, and what was he doing?
We found a drawing of the getaway car. Was it a finished painting, or just a sketch? And did they use pastels or crayons?
