Grade 5s Become "Crime Scene" Investigators

Language arts came alive in the classroom as Grade 5s became Crime Scene Investigators.

Following lessons on prepositions, students had to find the criminal who made intentional mistakes in the text. They carefully recorded evidence, took photos of the "crime scene" and ensured no evidence was tampered with. 

The Grade 5s were also responsible for determining and interviewing witnesses, and forming a motive for each suspect.
