Partner School Science Program (PSSP) Scholarship Program

Culture Capsule

If you were an astronaut, what items would you take with you that represents your home, to show to others?

What items would you send to your partner school that you could fit into a 30 cm (12") x  45 cm (18'') box that would represent you AND your classmates?

After filling out the questionnaire below, think about the things you would nominate for inclusion in the Culture Capsule.  Then your class will vote for the items that represent you best and help others get to know you better. Think about how you will present the Culture Capsule to your partner school. Can it be sent by mail or shown on the TV? Student performances of music, dance, theater, and science experiments can all be shared in the Video Classroom.
