The latest classroom tactic... (I dug deep into Lyan's toolbox.) I busted out the "lateral thinking" puzzles of my past.
The children became detectives. You know, like Sherlock Holmes. I provided the clues, and they solved the crimes.
Crime 1: Bill and Ted
Clues:
[1]broken glass on the floor
[2]a wet spot on the carpet
[3]Bill (the killer)
[4]Ted (the victim)
[5]there isn't a mark/injury on Ted's body
[6]Even though Bill is the killer, he did not get into trouble
What happened?
Answer: Ted is a goldfish. Bill is a little boy who accidentally knocked over the fish bowl... killing Ted in the process. Case closed.
The kids seem to love it and one class asks for a new crime each day.

Do I get cool points for just being in this picture?

Just so you know, I fully support the idea of you being a teacher in the future. I have no doubt your bag of Lyan tricks will keep replenishing yourself. :)
