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 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.
