What educators are saying

My students thought this was engaging! This activity got them up, using the entire room to collect some sort of evidence, package it, seal it and create a chain of custody. Then demonstrating how the chain of custody needs to be followed to track possession.
My students LOVED doing this activity! They had a great time traveling around school with their tool kits collecting evidence and trying to determine the primary crime scene!
