Reading
Have you ever fancied being a detective? Every time you infer something that you have read, you are being a reading detective. Today, your reading task is a “Whodunnit” story. Whodunnits are a story where the reader acts as a detective to find clues and solve the crime. When you have read the text, you need to complete a deductions sheet much like a real detective. You’ll need to think carefully about each of the suspect’s alibis. Finally, bring all of the clues together to make a deduction about who committed the crime. I’ll post the answers tomorrow.
Again, there are three different possibly challenge levels. Choose the challenge that you think is right for you.
1 star – story and deductions page.
2 star – story and deductions page.
3 star – story and deductions page.
