Forensic Final Exam Crime Scene
To do this exam crime scene requires that you purchase "The Case of Lois MacArthur" from Wards Natural Science and then some modification to the lab.

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.
