Description
This transformations activity is a Whodunnit math mystery where students perform reflections, rotations, and translations to uncover clues. Perfect for geometry review, practice, or engaging students with transformations.
Nothing like a good criminal investigation to liven up reflection, rotation, and translation!
Based on my popular CSI projects, I have created Whodunnits? The Whodunnits plan to focus on single content topics as opposed to units and will focus more on skill building than application. Every day can't be a project day, so Whodunnits can be an engaging out of their seat activity to practice important skills.
In a Whodunnit?, students will work in teams to solve 10 practice problems that increase in difficulty. After each answer, they will receive a clue. Similar to the popular board game Clue, there will be a fictional "injury"; the goal will be to determine the "criminal", the scene of the crime, and the method. Scenes will be placed around the room, and the students will have at it.
In this 10-page document, you will be given an outline for how to implement the project, a student worksheet, and 10 "Clues" to be printed and plastered to the wall.
