You need to make a time capsule of things that are happening in the world. If your parents let you have them get a newspaper and cut out pieces from the newspaper that have information like gas prices, articles about the coronavirus and advertisements in the newspaper that may tell you about prices during this time. Put those in a container of some kind. Then write me a letter telling me about things that you have been doing at this time. If your family has a copier make a copy of this letter and put the copy in the container. If you don't have a copy, on your letter write copy needed and I will make you a copy and send it back to you. Finally, have someone take a picture of you guys doing something together with your family. if they can have them print it off and put this into a container for you.
I am not quite done with the You tube video but it will be up and running shortly. I will email you on your school email the link as soon as it is ready.
