    These activities were awesome! Not only did my students love figuring out who on earth would deliver a llama (I mean…who isn’t obsessed with llamas,) but learning about fingerprinting and writing samples was engaging and exciting. I have 15 third graders that instantly want to go into Forensics when they grow up. The writing extension also gave us a great opportunity to tie in technology and writing. 5 Stars from this teacher!

    Our 4th graders at Middlesex Elementary love getting their fingerprints done. The students enjoyed making their own fingerprint card and then discussing who actually brought the llama to school. I love using these lessons in the classroom because they really get the students to think and also they are exploring different careers as well.
