Mystery Report due Friday November 29th (day 7).
Write a letter to your commanding officer (Ms. Fazio) explaining your investigation of 4 murders in a national park. Use the information given to you in the initial report. Although you may add to the information, you must not contradict or ignore the evidence already given to you! Your report must include suspect(s), clues, discovery, motive and an intellectual component. (This means you don't reveal the solution until the end of the report.)
I will be paying close attention to how you organized your text into paragraphs!
Example:
Dear commanding officer,
On (date) I was given the case of the four murders in La Mauricie National Park. This is what I was told...
I decided to first talk to the witness...
I then thought I should check out the crime scene. When I was there, I found...
Later that week, my partner and I questioned the suspect...
In the end, it was clear that the murderer was... The motive was obviously...
We caught the criminal ...
Sincerely,
Detective Smith
The text must not be longer than 350 words.
Once that has been completed, make your report look like an official document. This means you should put the report (as well as the brainstorm and rough copy) in some type of folder. Include pictures, maps, finger prints, etc.
