Solving Mysteries

Reading Detective Clubs were formed in our classroom this week. Each group of Reading Detectives worked to solve a different mystery. Each Reading Detective was given a badge and a case file to solve. Students met in groups to discuss the mystery they were reading. They shared clues they uncovered and possible suspects who were involved in the mystery. After reading their book and solving the mystery, detectives completed a detective case report as their final assignment. On Friday, we had a visitor from the Sheriff Department's CSI team. He talked to us about fingerprints. He even lifted some of our fingerprints off some items in our classroom. Here are a few pictures from our week.
