4 reviews for Murder Mystery: Robbery Gone Wrong

  1. Maria F.

    This is a phenomenal resource! I was able to use this to replace a hansons version of a crime scene processing and analysis so students could still conduct a virtual crime scene processing lab even in the digital / distance learning environment

  2. Swiss-Sweets

    Very elaborate and detailed resource.

  3. Sasha J.

    I used this as the final activity in my CSI class. The students were hooked and they loved looking at all the clues. Very well put together. I gave each team a different set of clues (as suggested) so no team could copy the other.

  4. Katie F.

    My students really liked this activity. I was a great addition to our class.
