Crime Scenes in the Social Studies Classroom #socialstudies #inquirymindset #bostonmassacre #activities #kids #lessonplans



Every classroom benefits from these two purchases:




So, in the weeks before the holiday break, my kiddos walked into this.....









I you are a reader of my blog, you will recognize this as an activity I did last year on the Boston Massacre.  Read about it here! For those of you that followed along last year, do you love my new tablecloth?  Bloodier than last year's window clings and I get to use it again and again.


My eighth graders were so excited because they saw the set up of this last year.  They did such an amazing job!!!  These kiddos are champions of textual evidence and totally would have gotten those British soldiers off in a court of law!
