The Case of the Missing Skeleton at Westridge

A mystery struck Westridge School’s 5th grade science class when class skeleton Mr. Bones went missing last week! With notebooks in hand, students investigated the “crime scene” for evidence – including overturned stools, warning tape, scattered papers, lists, and books – noting their observations and analyzing the evidence to draw logical, justified conclusions. The excitement of solving the mystery turned their classroom into a lively detective lab. A true exercise of scientific thinking principles!
