5 Volunteers Needed
How To:
- Children
are brought into the crime scene
- They are given an Evidence Card & told to find 4 pieces of evidence. They must find and tape to their Card: 3 different fingerprints, Hair Evidence, and take note of the footprint Evidence.
- After they have gathered their evidence they go to the Clue Board or Crime Lab Table and decide what specific evidence they have found (i.e. dog, cat, or human hair?)
- They then read the suspects statements, compare fingerprints, and, through process of elimination, decide “Who Done It!”
- Students may work collectively. The teacher may help. When their time is up, they will collectively vote on “Who Done It.” If they are correct, they will receive a prize at the awards assembly.
- As they are leaving the room, kids will leave thumbprint behind on cardstock. This can become a “find your fingerprint” when they get back to the class at the end of the day.
