This mini unit includes:

*3 Graphic Organizers
*Student Booklet: Case File to fill out as they are reading a mystery book. (7 half pages)
*Make a Detective Craft with templates
*Make a Magnifying Glass (summarizing craftivity) with templates
My third graders love their new detective notebook! It has everything you need to have them respond to their books and demonstrate comprehension. I am using this resource in conjunction with Beth Newingham's free printable "Ingredients of a Mystery" Lesson at Scholastic.
I purchased this unit, but I did not see any book suggestions for each group...would you please share what books you used with each group please?
Thanks for the fun unit!
