Forensic Science & True Crime in the Classroom

Turn your classroom into a crime lab.

Forensic science and true crime aren’t just engaging — they teach the critical thinking, evidence analysis, and reading comprehension skills your students actually need. When a student is analyzing how forensic entomology helped solve a real murder case, they’re not zoning out. They’re locked in.

I’ve built one of the largest collections of forensic science reading comprehension resources on TpT — from serial killer case studies to unsolved mysteries to crime scene investigation simulations.

Whether you teach forensic science, criminal justice, biology, or just need an activity that grabs students who check out during a typical lesson — this is your section.
