Instructional methods: The class is told that each bag was found at
a crime scene and is presumed to belong to the perpetrator. In groups,
students analyze the character to whom the bag “belongs,” creating a chart
on their poster displaying each item of “evidence” and what it says about the
person. (The bags, depending on the teacher’s preferences and available
resources, may or may not be designed to belong to specific real people or
characters). They then create a “Wanted” poster using this information.
Upon completion of the poster, they present it to the class, explaining how
they came to their conclusions about the suspect.
and on the post-it, write the character’s name, the evidence, and what that
evidence says about the character. After completing this reading, they
rewrite the information from the post-its in long-answer format, writing a
paragraph about each character. If the students are assigned pairs, the
teacher monitors the progress carefully to make sure both parties are
contributing equally to the work. The assessment is graded according to a
rubric, which requires them to make X number of observations about Y
number of characters based upon Z pieces of evidence (X, Y and Z being
dependent on the text chosen).

Objectives: Lamarr can find 7 facts of his choice rather than the full
13, as his limited reading comprehension will make scanning for information
during research challenging.
