The case of the Barefoot Burglar
The Crime
At approximately 7:15 a.m., Friday morning, Mrs. King, the science teacher, thought something was fishy
as she walked down the hall and noticed that her door was open. She walked into her classroom and
immediately
discovered that the small aquarium had been broken and her prized gold fish were gasping in the sink.
Beside the broken aquarium were the shattered remains of the pink piggy bank that had been on the shelf
above the aquarium. A can of blue paint was spilled on the floor. Footprints of a barefooted burglar led to
an open window. Bits of a white powdery substance were found next to
the broken, empty, piggy bank. The only other item found was a half-eaten large chunk of chocolate candy.

When the police arrived they immediately began to gather forensic evidence.Peg the Leg
Height: 5'
Alias: Lucky Lady
Peg is a librarian known for hanging horseshoes and four leaf clovers in her library. Employees say
she is so superstitious she insisted on carpeting in the library instead of laying tiles so she would not step on the cracks. She wraps construction zone tape around open ladders so no one can walk under them. Cola bottles litter her office, which she drinks with chocolate chunks. Her teeth are chipped from knocking the bottles against them. She is always throwing salt over her shoulder for good luck and keeps a salt shaker in her purse. Her alibi is that she was busy closing open umbrellas the morning of the crime. | |
Jake the Jock
Height 6'6"
Alias: Armchair Quarterback
Jake the Jock is known for quoting statistics on every sport from boomerang throwing to sled dogging. His neighbors report that he is the neighborhood
pitcher for baseball games. Last year a baseball hit him in the mouth and knocked out his front tooth. This has cramped his eating style of chocolate chunks, candied apples, and corn on the cob. His wife claims that on the morning of the crime Jake was rubbing his hands with cornstarch to keep them dry in preparation for an important baseball game. |

Lou Lou
Height: 5'3"
Alias: Sweet Tooth
| |
Lou Lou is so addicted to sugar that she never leaves home without it. She loves to bake sweet things and has an entire pantry full of sugar bins. She claims to have been baking her famous chocolate chunk cookies the morning of the crime (although not a morsel of cookie or chocolate chunk was left when the police arrived.) Lou Lou rarely wears shoes, which often causes her to slip and break things, especially her collection of ceramic pigs.

- Sticky, 'swirl' fingerprints were lifted from the aquarium and piggy bank.
- The painted footprints were measured and were for 26cm feet. ( size 8)
- The chunk of chocolate candy was collected for examination. It appeared there were teeth imprints.
- The white powdery substance by the piggy bank was carefully placed in a plastic bag and taken to the forensic chemist for identification . It had very small grains and when mixed with Iodine it reacted making the colour brown. It did not have a smell.

white powder test
A forensic scientist may discover powder at a crime scene. In order to determine if it is illegal or not the crime lab will identify the substance using chemistry. Take on the role of a forensic chemist to identify unknown substances.
Become a Forensic Chemist by following these procedures and filling in the Powder Analysis Chart with your results.

Complete the appearance, texture, and smell activities before opening the vinegar and iodine bottles.
Record your findings in the Powder Analysis Chart below.
Aim: To determine how different powders feel, look and react to other substances.

Equipment:
Baking Soda
Cornflour

Magnifying glass
Eyedrop
Black card
Tea spoon / stick
Method:
- Place one-fourth teaspoon (1 ml) of the four white powders on a sheet of black construction paper. Label the powders with your pen.
- Study the powders with the magnifying glass. Examine what each powder looks like. How would you describe the powder's shape. Does it have large or small grains? Your observations should be written in the appearance column of the chart.
- Examine the powders further by rubbing each powder between your fingers. Describe how each powder feels in the Texture column of the chart.
- Determine if there is a smell to any of the powders. Record your findings in the Smell column of the chart.
- Take the eyedropper and place a drop of water on each individual powder. Examine what happens? Do the powders dissolve? Is there a reaction? Write your observations in the Reaction to Water column.
- Place one-half teaspoon (2ml) of each powder in a separate jar. Add 2 drops of iodine to each jar using the eyedropper. Record what happens in the Reaction to Iodine column. Iodine should be handled with care.

forgery
today we did forgery in science here are some of the photos of mine and some of the people in my class here is some of the hand writing
We have been working on a Presentation on Hornby High School. I have enjoyed creating it.The best bit I liked doing was putting in the gifs and telling people about how amazing this school is.
We have also been learning about the Community.
What a Community is? What makes it a Community?
A Community is a place where we feel like we belong and places like a school, sports clubs, shops, friends, churches and work places are part of the making of a Community.
