My Project

At our middle school, we have a workforce that students sign up for so they can learn about different areas in the adult workforce. As a science teacher, I will be teaching a Forensics course for our workforce.

Students at our middle school LOVE science and learning about different careers in the science field, and with these supplies, they will be able to fully dive into forensics.

These supplies will assist in teaching them about the field of forensics. They will learn how to collect evidence, observe a crime scene, dust for fingerprints on surfaces, identify different fingerprint types and as a final project dissect a fetal pig to conclude cause of death.

My goal for this project is to provide all the tools and supplies so that we can fully dive into the forensics course and my students can really learn and appreciate science careers in the "real world"!
