What educators are saying

I used this resource for after-school 21st century and the students loved it. It was a great way to review some of the skills they had already learned and they did it while having fun. My 3rd and 4th were especially good at this and it helped them to feel more confident in their abilities.
My kids beg me to get these for them weekly. They love doing them so much and they've taught them to work through harder work.

*****NEW table format is given in a separate file, which you may prefer to use instead of the original suspect/evidence pages.

(There are seven pages for the investigation in total)

Multiple Uses

Use as an independent, pairs, or small group task. Make it a part of your ELA sessions, add it to your early finisher tasks, keep it handy for a sub, or give it as a homework assignment.

This style of mystery is different from my Reading 'Once Upon a Crime' and Math Mystery ranges. In these 'Private Eye CSI' Literacy Mysteries, students will be building suspect files and looking for clues in the text. Then, they must use the information found to figure out who the Masked Menace is! They will also need to provide enough evidence to convict a suspect as being the culprit.
