Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Order in the Court: This section just gives you a brief overview of the book. First, you read the short testimony. Second, evidence is presented (pictures, documents, etc.). Finally, you decide if the person on trial is guilty or not guilty. The Case of the Burning Barn: After a barn catches on fire, did the owner burn it down or was it a drifter that was seen in the area? The Case of the Jelly Bean Jubilee: Roxy's Movie Palace holds a jelly bean guessing contest. Two contestants are off by 50, so there is a play off. One is off by a lot, the other is off by a little. Was the contest fixed? Included are 8 other mysteries that you have to solve.

I use this book with classes of third grade gifted students. The cases keep them thinking, as they take notes on the cases and then discuss their findings with one another.

These books are great. They are really fun to play with your family or friends. You can even give out parts and and act the mystery out. In each mystery there are 3 pictures and some of the pictures you have to study and see what doesn't fit with the mystery. Its really fun!! I recomend it for anyone!!
challanging,interesting,worthwhile reading
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Using this book to teach reading to 7-8th graders in a special education class. The students remain interested and get excited about reading these stories. The students are challanged, as well as feeling good about themselves because they have read a whole story and can still remember enough about it to make the final decision of guilty or innocent!Great Books!!!
