Class experience
US Grade 5 - 8
This class is perfect for mystery and true crime lovers! Texts are suited for grades 5-9. Students will learn crime-related vocabulary (alibi, affidavit, misdemeanor, etc.), critical thinking skills, and practice applying evidence to analyze a fake mystery. All materials will be attached as a pdf that will be released a few minutes before class starts. I do not release materials early to ensure that students do not look over the cases ahead of time. This will make the activities in class fair...
critical thinking, application of textual evidence, and attention to detail.
ELA teacher, avid true crime and mystery lover.
All materials will be attached as a pdf that students will have access to. No materials need to be printed.

No disturbing images (i.e. blood) or graphic readings/material will be included. The cases do center around a possible murder. There is a coroner's report reading, but no graphic or disturbing information is detailed.
