We all like discovering things! Have you ever been involved into a situation or problem you needed to solve? This is your time! Think critically create a crime scene with the context provided. Then create a solution for the crime scene you have been presented.
WHAT A STORY!
So... let immerse ourselves in this amazing world and discover who are the criminals that perpetuated the crime your classmates have created. It is time to become police investigators, follow the clues and discover the criminal. In order to do so, create your own crime scene and in order to present it create a police investigation board (something similar to the picture you have above) then, present it to the class and report what you have created and discovered.
