Which Leprechaun Messed up the Room? St Patrick's Day Crime Scene

(0)
This leprechaun crime scene activity pack is a great addition to your St Patrick’s topic. With this pack you will be able to create a crime scene where one of the leprechaun’s has messed up the classroom! Students have to investigate using the clues provided to find out who committed the crime out of 4 possible suspects. This crime scene is designed to be interactive, engaging and adapted to suit students ability levels. This crime scene includes the following activities; • Taste Something has been left behind for students to taste! (Pretzels) Students have to taste the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to eat it. • Smell Something has been left behind for students to smell! (Green peppers) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this. • Glittering Coins Cut out and hide the gold coins with letters on them in a sensory tray - or around the crime scene. Students have to match the letter gold coins to the leprechaun’s names. The leprechaun who has their name missing is the culprit! • Matching Fingerprints Fingerprints were left at the scene. Students need to match these to the suspects fingerprints. • Witness Statements There were some witnesses for this crime! Use the key at the bottom of the worksheets to look for which words the students need to highlight through the text. The leprechaun with the most highlighted words 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 messed up the classroom. • 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 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 so that 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. However, you will need access to cheese and chocolate for students to taste/smell. I also recommend messing up your classroom a bit so that when the students walk in they do think that a leprechaun has been in and messed up their room - making it that bit more real and visual for them.

This download consists of 36 different Growth Mindset posters. These are great to have on display around your classroom/work area to promote and encourage students working to have Growth Mindset. I highly recommend laminating each of the individual posters so that they will be stronger and longer lasting. These posters will provide you with a great opportunity to encourage Growth Mindset within your classroom / work room.
