Here is my blogging TBT. It is a post from September 18, 2011. I still do this activity with my students every year…they love opening the can the last week of school.

As part of my Responsive Classroom I always have my students write their Hopes and Dreams/Goals on clouds and hang them up on a wall in the classroom at the beginning of the year. I wanted to change things up and loved this sheet from Dotsnspots. Thanks for sharing!!!!
I reduced the size of the Hopes and Dreams sheet so it would fit into can when rolled up. I had the children share them during morning meeting. We rolled them up and tied them with a ribbon. We then closed up the Hopes and Dreams Time Capsule and will share our sheets on the last day!
The paint can was from Home Depot. I tied lots of ribbons on the handles. Here is the cover sheet and top of the can. Click on picture below to print out:
There is an end of the year reflection sheet that I use before we open the can. The kids like to compare their favorites and see what has changed and what has stayed the same.

I have used this every year since your original post. I even used your paint can idea. It worked perfect, and my students always love this activity. Thank you!
