Who Poisoned the Princess? Crime Scene

This Princess crime scene activity pack is a great addition to your fairytale - or princess - topic. With this pack you will be able to create a crime scene where someone has poisoned the princess! 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! (Toast) 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! (Pepper) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this.
• Eye Witness Reports
Students need to read the 4 eye witness reports and pull important information from them. They then need to see if any of this information matches any of the suspects in the line up.
• Matching Fingerprints
Fingerprints have been left behind at the scene! Students need to look at the fingerprints and try and match them to the suspects footprints.
• 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 eaten the gingerbread man’s house.
• 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 carrots and pepper for students to taste/smell.
