Crack the Case! - Grades 5-8

Step into the role of a forensic scientist and uncover the science behind solving crimes! In this exciting one-week forensic science camp, middle school students will explore how real investigators use evidence, observation, and scientific reasoning to crack a case. Throughout the week, campers will analyze fingerprints, DNA simulations, fibers, handwriting, shoe prints, and trace evidence while learning how chemistry, biology, and physics come together in forensic investigations. Students will practice critical thinking, teamwork, and problem-solving as they apply scientific methods to realistic scenarios.
