Week 3

This week we introduced the characters in our mystery.  Such names like Gene Poule and Alfredo Fettuccine elicited many laughs.  Teacher Cindy read the background story of our victim, then several of our future detectives volunteered to read the statements issued by our different suspects.  Next, teacher Kim helped create our clue board.  Each suspect's photo was placed up and we wrote our different pieces of evidence, then placed them under who we believed those put suspicion on. I can't believe the connections they have made between clues and statements, such smart students.  We keep reviewing what inference and observations are, and whether we are guessing or using the evidence to prove our postulations.
