5th-8th grade Crime Scene Investigation Intro
To many times children hear or see various types of crime on the news, in social media, or even in their neighborhoods. Rather than the students looking at these crimes for the tragedy that they are, this short unit allows students to look at the investigative side, a career in Forensic Science. Through these three lessons, students will learn what forensic science is, what types of forensic sciences there are, and they also will get to look at handwriting and fingerprinting in more detail.
