Can your students help solve the crime of who froze the elf? This Christmas crime scene activity pack is a great addition to your Christmas – or Elf – themed topic. With this pack you will be able to create a crime scene where somebody has frozen the elf! Students have to investigate using the clues provided. Then, they work out who committed the crime out of 4 possible suspects.

This crime scene is interactive, engaging and adapted to suit students ability levels.

This crime scene includes the following activities;

Time/Clock Recognition. Students need to look at the CCTV images and match the time (clocks) to when the crime happened. This gives students a time frame. tThe suspects are then asked where they were at that time.
Taste. The culprit has left their favorite food behind. (Cookies) Students have to taste the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to eat it.
Smell. The culprit has left something behind that is their favorite smell. (Milk) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this.
Addition/Subtraction. Laminate the sums and freeze them into ice cubes. Students have to work out how to get the clue out of the ice (melting it, cracking through it etc). They then work out the sum and match it to the suspect who has the same number as the answer to the sum.
Clue Book. Students put their clues into the clue book as they go along. This way they are able to keep track of all the clues they have found. This will help them when they need to make a decision on who they think froze the elf.
Wanted Poster. Once students have decided who they think the criminal is – they need to make the wanted poster to capture them! Students can either draw and write the criminal’s face and name onto the wanted poster. Or, they can use the pictures and names we have included to cut and stick onto the wanted poster instead.

Your students will love taking part in this fun and interactive crime scene. Especially during a busy time of year when it can be hard to keep them engaged. A teachers walkthrough is also included in the pack. This is to help you put together the crime scene and use it to the best of its ability. I would also recommend trying out the crime scene before giving it to your students. That way you are able to familiarize yourself with the way that it works.

This comes in both spelling options i.e color/colour, favorite/favourite etc.

Almost everything that you need to complete this crime scene is included in this pack. But, you will need access to cookies and milk for students to taste/smell.
