TARGETS
- Reading
- Comprehension
- Main Idea
- Vocabulary (Definitions, Synonyms)
- Drawing Conclusions
- Analyzing Text for Clues
- Making Inferences
- Critical Thinking
In this packet, you will receive:
- Teacher instructions
- The introduction page to set the stage
- Case File Templates: Suspect page, evidence page, note-taking page
- Reading and activity worksheets: some worksheets will involve reading and answering comprehension questions. Some worksheets will be a crack-the-code style with vocabulary work (in this packet students will be required to match words with definitions on one page, the other is synonym matching.
(There are six pages for the investigation in total)
- Solution declaration page (students will be required to write or choose five important clues to convict the thief they declare! Two options are provided here.)
- Answer sheets and solution guide
- Printable awards to give to students who solve the case correctly!
This style of mystery is different from my Math Mystery range. In these Literacy Mysteries, students will be building their own suspect files, drawing out their own clues from the text, critically thinking to solve who the thief is, and then providing enough evidence to convict the culprit!
I would love to hear how this goes with your students. Please let me know via the feedback option or by emailing me on jjresourcecreations@gmail.com with any suggestions.

3. What worked well and what did not?
