Catch Me When You Can | A "Whodunnit" mystery about Jack the Ripper

Catch Me When You Can | A "Whodunnit" mystery about Jack the Ripper
Social Studies, Biographies, Grade 6, 7, 8, Activities, Games

I created this simulation to give my middle school students the opportunity to experience the Jack the Ripper phenomena. This simulation does not focus so much on the gory nature of the crime. Instead, the students become the detectives of the Whitechapel district of the London Metropolitan police. It becomes a race to catch Jack. The students get to make decisions and experience the consequences of their decisions as well. The whole class is involved and they are soon very engaged in the investigation. Here is what is included in this simulation: - A Lesson Plan/Procedure to help you organize and run the simulation - A Teacher Part for when you act as the Chief Inspector of District H - Whitechapel - Situation Reports for you to read each round - All the materials for Round #1 - "It Begins" - All the materials for Round #2 - "It Escalates" - All the materials for Round #3 - "The Double Event" - All the materials for Round #4 - "The Murders End?" - A Power Point to help introduce and ask important questions to debrief at the end - Maps of the Whitechapel district I designed the simulation to be completed in a one hour classroom setting. However, you can easily adapt this to whatever time frame or classroom setting you have. I hope you enjoy running the simulation.

I tested this with a fifth-grade class and most could complete it with no help. Designed to print with no supports for easy printing. PDF file with TinkerCAD step-by-step instructions for 3 different whistles with 32 pages. I have used this instructions with students as young as 5th grade and as high as 12th grade. The 5th graders needed some help and guidance but middle schoolers and high school students usually did not need any help at all. 5th and 6th grade classes took about 2 hours to finish the project. Middle schoolers took about 1 hour, and high school students took about 30-40 minutes to finish. The referee whistle works like a regular whistle. The slide whistle works and make different sounds be sliding the insert back and forth to make different pitches. The train whistle works by having different lengths of hollowed out tubes which generate different pitches. Very detailed instructions. Students are expected to be familiar with TinkerCAD, and know the basics. There is a TinkerCAD tool guide within the instructions to aid in learning TinkerCAD.

Smart Cookie Game-Part 2 (2022 Version)

Smart Cookie Game-Part 2 (2022 Version)
Special Resources, Social Skills, Grade 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Games

In this Smart Cookie game (2022 version), students try and race each other to be the first one to guess the answer based on one at a time clues after one at a time clicks via Presentation mode on Google Slides. This is based on the wildly popular game Smart A** but more applicable and relevant to elementary-high schoolers. I have included many references to popular t.v. shows and famous people the students born after 2001 would know. This is a trivial pursuit-like game but more fun and students feel more successful. It is just for fun and perfect for Zoom, an ice breaker or indoor recess but they might even learn something! There are 3 categories; Who Am I?, Where Am I?, and What Am I? There are 42 slides for each category. Use in Presentation mode for your class. There are answer sheets at the end for each card so the Game Leader can reference quickly and keep track of the cards used. This is in PowerPoint so the completed cards will turn black after being used for easy game play. In this new 2022 version there are all new cards for each category!
