I bought the Salem Witch Trials CSI Investigation and I came back to buy the American History Bundle! My students enjoyed working with primary source resources and learning the information as if they were real detectives! Very useful product, especially for students with exceptionalities! Would highly recommend!

I loved the set up of the CSI assignments and loved how students have to analyze a bunch of different sources and then come up with their conclusion with evidence. I think these were awesome and I loved how they made my 8th graders think! I also had 12 graders in an elective course complete some of these and they loved it!!

My students have really enjoyed doing the CSI investigations. I have created a few of these in the past, but this is so convenient to have all the docs in one place and easy to use. Only feedback would be, I would love to have digital resources with this document that are in google docs, not just google slides. It makes editing for the kids more difficult, but that did not change my opinion. Quality resource!
