Students have to investigate using the clues provided to find. Then try and 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;

• Taste

The culprit left something behind for your students to taste! (Mouldy milk – milk with green food colouring). 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 left something behind for your students to smell! (Pumpkin) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this.

• Suspect Interviews

Students need to read through the 4 suspect interviews. These have important information that could give them some clues to who the culprit is.

• Poison Experiment

There was a bottle of poison left at the scene! (You need to make this up beforehand to leave there). Students need to following the recipes to try and make the same poison that was at the scene. Once they have worked out which one looks the same. They need to match what ingredients they used in their potion. Then, they look at the 4 suspects shopping lists – who recently bought these items?

• Code Cracker

Cut out the 5 codes and hide them around the crime scene – or in a sensory tray. Students have to find these and use the code word cracker sheet to work out what they mean and who they spell. This is the culprit.

• 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 has poisoned Frankenstein.

• 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, 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 will help you put together the crime scene and use it to the best of its ability. I recommend trying out the crime scene before giving it to your students. This 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 lettuce and mud for students to taste/smell.
