1. CRITICAL THINKING, LEADERSHIP, AND MYSTERY ACTIVITY

2.  SIT IN ONE LARGE CIRCLE  I WILL HAND OUT ONE CLUE TO EACH OF YOU  YOU MAY NOT PASS THE CLUE AROUND OR SHOW THEM TO ANYONE  YOU MAY NOT MOVE FROM YOUR SEAT  IT IS UP TO THE GROUP TO DECIDE HOW TO SOLVE THE MYSTERY  ALL SHARING OF CLUES MUST BE DONE VERBALLY

3.  YOU MUST SOLVE THE MYSTERY BY ANSWERING THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: ◦ Who was the MURDERER? ◦ What was the murder WEAPON? ◦ What TIME did the murder take place? ◦ WHERE did the murder take place? ◦ WHY did the murder take place? (MOTIVE) ◦ ALL GROUP MEMBERS MUST AGREE ON ALL ANSWERS ◦ I WILL ONLY TELL YOU IF YOU ARE CORRECT IF ALL FIVE ANSWERS ARE CORRECT (I WILL NOT TELL YOU WHICH IS/IS NOT CORRECT)

4.  LET’S SWEETEN THE DEAL: ◦ The class that solves the mystery most quickly, out of ALL English 10 classes, will get extra credit! GO SCHUMACHER’S 6 th PERIOD!

5. REFLECTION QUESTIONS

6.  FOLD IT, SO IT LOOKS LIKE THIS: Name, period, date Write the questions in the left hand column Write your answers in the right hand column

7. REMEMBER, THESE SHOULD BE WRITTEN ON THE LEFT:  How did the leader of the group become the leader?  Was he/she the right person for the job? Explain why or why not.  Based on your scale of moral values (think about our Antigone rankings) who do you think would have been the best leader and why?  What frustrated you about this process? How did you react to those frustrations?
