Here is what some happy teachers are saying about the Death Investigation Bundle:
My students loved these resources! We had so much fun doing forensics in Criminology! Would recommend to anyone teaching Crim 🙂 – Caitlin B. February 8, 2023
This resource was the perfect way to introduce Death Investigation and Forensic Autopsies. The content was easy to present/distribute to my students, but challenging enough that they stayed engaged throughout each lesson. Each Google Slides Presentation was beautifully designed with eye catching images and information. Thanks for creating an easy to use resource that kept my in-person and virtual students engaged! – Ms Conyers November 2, 2021
This resource was AMAZING and was just what I needed for my Zooming/in-person mixed class. The activities were fun and my students thoroughly enjoyed working through them. The information was beautifully presented and laid out and covered all the salient points. It was just what I was looking for! – Ms Hamilton September 30, 2021
