This Halloween activity is a great way for your students to work on their reading, recognition and instruction following skills. Students have to read the instructions on each of the task cards included, and find/point to the matching items on the Halloween scene. This is a great way for students to pay close attention to detail and start to work on their symbol > image matching/recognition skills. The theme is linked to Halloween and is a great way for you to introduce some Halloween fun into your classroom while continuing your students work on these important skills. Instructions are also included on first page of the PDF document. I would highly recommend laminating each of the individual pieces so that they will be stronger, therefore longer lasting.

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! (Lettuce) 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! (Mud) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this. • Eyewitness Reports There were 4 eye witnesses of the crime! Students need to read through their witness statements and see if their information matches any of the suspects. • Hidden Clue Cut up the heart jigsaw that is included, laminate it and hide it in a tray of mashed up chocolate cake (so it looks like mud). Students have to pull the pieces of the heart out and put it together to form a clue of what colour/color the suspect is. • 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 stolen Mrs Potato’s heart. • Find the Heart Now we know who committed the crime - but we still need to get Mrs Potato’s heart back! Students need to follow the instructions around the map to find Mrs Potato’s heart and return it to her. • Wanted Poster Once students have decided who they think the criminal is - they need to make the wanted poster to capture them!

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 lettuce and mud for students to taste/smell.
