Description
Grades 6–12. For a class of 30. Students go through forensic “training” by observing labeled slides of materials typically found by forensic investigators at a crime scene, including hair, blood, and textiles. After studying the known slides, students are presented with a mock murder mystery and “evidence” found at the crime scene. Students then examine the evidence, compare it to the testimonies of the suspects, and pinpoint the culprit.
Kit includes a forensic slide set with accompanying descriptive text, mystery story, evidence, and teacher instructions. To replenish the kit’s consumable components or use the kit in multiple class periods, purchase the Microscopic Forensics Kit Refill (item #699880R).
