This is just a template for your memory book assignment. Decide what you would want to pull out of a time capsule or box 20 years from now. What would you want to remember? Please change the pages any way you like. Add pages where you write memories or add photo collages of things you want to remember. Add clip art, photos, memes, and borders to your pages. Really make it your own. I hope you guys have a lot of fun with this project.

I'm putting together a template for you to work on the memory book project we were going to do this quarter. Please let me know what kind of pages you'd like to have. If you have ideas about categories of things to go on certain pages please list those as well. (Please keep ideas school appropriate.) I have pages for 6,7, & 8th grade to list favorites, friends, classes, etc. Then there is a personal Hall of Fame. I made a "what the world is like" page...need ideas for things to list there. What other pages should there be?
For those of you online, this will be completely editible. You can add images or categories to your pages. This is just a template to get you started. For people with the packets, it would be printed out, so I want to get as many ideas as I can into it soon.
Thanks for your help!
