For this one time class, learners will be given three mysteries to solve. There will be three levels of difficulty for each mystery: easy, medium and hard. Learners will be given and guided in a mystery to solve by discovering what kind of tools a secret a detective uses, and hunting for clues with the instructor. I will take on the role of a secret agent/trainer who has been given a confidential and important mystery to solve. This is a fun and exciting game of role-playing with an emphasis in imaginative play and critical thinking. I will be using a Powerpoint slide with details and instructions to facilitate clues. Once we solve the mystery using our crime-stopping skills, "agents" will receive their Certified Secret Agent Spy certificate in the Outschool classroom. Although, this is a one time class, I do new mysteries for each class, so learners can take this class each time and get a new case to crack!
