⏳ Start the Year With An All About Me Time Capsule Worksheet Pack

Start your school year with a fun and meaningful time capsule project that helps students reflect, create, and dream about the year ahead! The All About Me Time Capsule Worksheet Pack is the perfect back-to-school resource to use during the first week of school. With this project template pack, your students will create their very own time capsule, filled with writing samples, drawings, and reflections that capture who they are right now.

This hands-on, project-based activity helps ease students into a new classroom routine while building excitement and curiosity for the year ahead. At the end of the school year, revisit each all-about-me time capsule worksheet to help students see just how much they’ve grown. They’ll love seeing the messages they left for their future self!

A Back-to-School Time Capsule Printable Your Students Will Love!

This Time Capsule Printable includes a variety of templates and worksheets that guide students through each step of building their personal time capsule. Inside, students will:

• Complete “All About Me” time capsule worksheets to record their favourite things, hobbies, and hopes for the year ahead.
• Design their own time capsule container, using a drawing page to plan out how it will look.
• Gather ideas for what materials they might use—such as paper towel rolls, Pringles™ cans, craft sticks, or small boxes—to build and decorate their final capsule.

This activity is ideal for integrating writing, art, and self-reflection at the start of the year and for giving you valuable insight into their new students’ personalities and interests.
