Reviews
" Science Sleuths is a great book for the teacher who hopes to engage middle school students in science investigations that build upon high interest topics related to mystery, clues, and intrigue." ?Dr. Gail H. Marshall, Ed. D., Assistant Professor, College of Education, University of West Georgia "The teacher briefs, notes, prompts, and tantalizing topics make Science Sleuths an invaluable resource. These sixty activities are intriguing and the procedures are easy-to-follow." ?Diane Matthews, Assistant Principal, Fairplay Middle School "Walker and Wood are addressing the heart of scientific thought, Critical Thinking and Inquiry, by placing it in a format of forensics, a tremendously appealing idea for the targeted age group in grades 4-8." --(Education Review, June 2007)

Synopsis
If your students enjoy solving mysteries, theyll love the activities in Science Sleuths . Forensic science is an ideal vehicle for teaching the nature of science as well as basic science concepts. Besides teaching students to think like scientists, forensic science activities also help them understand, master, and apply science concepts. In addition, forensic science relies heavily on science process skills, manipulative skills, laboratory skills, and interpersonal skills, all emphasized by the National Science Education Standards. Science Sleuths is an easy-to-use guide that will help you teach students how to unravel forensic science mysteries while improving their critical thinking skills. What your students wont realize is that by solving these mysteries they are engaging in problem solving, application, and synthesis. The activities and experiments in Science Sleuths vary widely, covering topics that range from techniques for sharpening observation skills to recipes for extracting DNA, and they can all be completed without specialized lab equipment. By putting the focus on skills related to critical thinking, the book helps students: Identify questions that can be answered throughscientific investigation Collect and analyze data Explain scientific concepts and make predictions Make logical deductions and develop explanationsbased on evidence Share findings with others clearly and logically Integrate math and writing skills with science Each chapter in this helpful teaching aid contains eight in-class experiments and activities plus two homework assignments that will engage the interest of young, budding scientists. The activities all include a teacher briefing section, clear activity preparation steps (with lists of materials needed), background information to familiarize students with the topic, detailed procedure descriptions, and conclusion questions. Help your students become confident, accomplished thinkers and solve the mystery of making science fun with Science Sleuths!
