Elementary students were able to witness a crime scene, look for clues and conduct science experiments to catch the culprit. Younger students created a skit, crime scene, and imovie trailer to share with Mrs. Stevenson's kindergarten class. Older students set up their own mystery productions to share with their peers.
We will be studying the mystery of the Lost Colony of Roanoke this week. Students will be able to conduct research through blendspace and other resources to prepare to participate in a Socratic seminar. Socratic seminars allow students to ask critical thinking questions, share their research, and make judgments. It allows for total participation and simply has the feel of an amazing classroom discussion!
We are looking forward to a visit from Officer White in October! He will be conducting a fingerprinting class with our "gumshoes in training!"
