TARGETS

- Reading

- Making Inferences

- Comprehension

- Main Idea

- Vocabulary (Definitions)

- Drawing Conclusions

- Analyzing Text for Clues

- Critical Thinking

In this packet, you will receive:

- Teacher instructions

- The introduction page to set the stage

- Case File Templates: Suspect page, evidence page, note-taking page

- Reading and activity worksheets: most worksheets will involve reading and answering comprehension questions. One worksheet will be a crack the code style with vocabulary work (in this packet, students will be required to put words in alphabetical order) + mini missing vowels message.

(There are seven pages for the investigation in total)

- Solution declaration page (students will be required to write or choose important clues to convict the culprit! Two options are provided here.)

- Answer sheets and solution guide

- Printable awards to give to students who solve the case correctly!

This style of mystery is different from my Math Mystery range. In these Literacy Mysteries, students will be building their own suspect files, drawing out their own clues from the text, critically thinking to solve who the thief is, and then providing enough evidence to convict the culprit! Making inferences is a big part of this activity.
