History's Mysteries: Solve The Crime of The Time

In this hands-on investigative activity, students are given an authentic task: to think like criminalists and review mock forensic files of a historical event. Students gather, analyze, and interpret evidence, engaging in tasks such as examining physical objects (e.g., a model of a guillotine, bullets, a bloodspattered uniform), poring over photographs, analyzing documents, and reading maps and charts. A PowerPoint® presentation includes an introduction to the task, a coroner’s report, and several types of sources from the “crime scene.” 

Students then fill out a “forensic report” graphic organizer, hypothesize how the event took place, and conclude by reading a “Mystery Solved” handout that provides historical background on the “crime.” Optional extension activities include having students create a “breaking news” TV report, write a front-page newspaper article, or compose a “news alert” text message. Grades 6–12.
