*** New to Outschool? Use code MelanieWia2020 to save $20! Welcome to a 'Month of Murder Mysteries'! Over four classes, students will get the opportunity to solve four different murder mysteries. This is to encourage students to use their critical thinking and oral presentation skills. In each of these murder mysteries, each student will be assigned the role of one of the six characters. You will become a part of the investigation team to determine which one of you is not as innocent as you are letting on. You will be given a character description, a script, and a secret that hopefully, no one brings up! Students will work together and independently to critically assess each character's motive, means, and opportunity. Students should be comfortable reading in front of a small group. Each student will be given 15-20 lines, along with a short paragraph introduction which they will read in front of the class. Students will be encouraged to have their cameras on and be prepared to engage with one another as their script will be what guides the story. On the day prior to each class (unless students enroll the day of), students will receive a message on Outschool with a document containing their character description, introduction, lines, and their secret. Students will also be provided with a graphic organizer to help them organize the clues they discover. Students are required to be in class on time. There are four classes that are a part of this course and each week is an individual murder mystery (not connected to the previous weeks). See the syllabus for the individual themes. In each class, there will be three rounds, each round contains script lines and the opportunity for students to guess who they think the murderer is. Full instructions will be provided in the first class. Please note the class will only run with a minimum of five students to ensure that students are given the best experience. If you would like to try a one-time experience that will be similar to this course, please check out 'Murder Mystery: The Mystery at the Gray's Country Estate'. You will also find reviews of that course listed. https://outschool.com/classes/murder-mystery-the-mystery-at-the-grays-country-estate-gEiEIUBf

Hello Outschool families,
My name is Melanie Wiancko, but you can call me Mrs. Mel! I am a Canadian teacher who loves solving puzzles, hiking, jogging, reading, and playing games! I hope to offer courses that spark your interest in history, geography, math, travel, escape rooms, chess, world religion, and more!
Experience: I have received my Bachelor of Education from Nipissing University and my Bachelor of Arts in History from Brock University. I am a certified teacher in Ontario, Canada, and I also have specific qualifications in intermediate math and intermediate/senior history and geography. I have experience teaching English online to English Language Learners ranging in ages from three to fifteen. I love teaching online and the opportunity to connect with students of all ages from around the world. We all have something to learn from one another!
Teaching Philosophy: As a lifelong learner, I believe that learning is best experienced when it is interactive, engaging, and is something that you are passionate about. In my classroom, students will be provided with the opportunity to explore their passions in interactive ways through pictures, discussion, games, and more. My classroom is a place of respect and inclusiveness where students can be curious, make mistakes, and grow. Let’s learn together!
