My students are taking the national exams today so I decided to make a game for after midterms (more than a month away I know but I'm bored) so since I work at an all girls high school and they love BBC Sherlock I figured I'd give it a go. the goal will be to practice giving opinions (by accusing the murderer) I got the mystery from this website:
http://www.englishadvantage.info/worksheet/murder-of-a-millionaire/Some of the screen caps are not of the highest quality but I did what I could. I haven't watched the show in a long time but I tried to get in some references to the show that I hope the students who do watch it will enjoy. But, if anyone has a way to improve it I'll certainly be happy to hear it.
I've also made a quick worksheet for the students to keep track of the suspects and alibis(I'll explain what those mean of course). Ideally we'll have time after playing and I'm hoping to make a giant clue board for them to get more practice giving opinions. Using characters from Sherlock instead of the standard ones of course. When I have time to make that I'll upload it here.
Hopefully the ppt isn't too cheesy, if anyone has suggestions I'd be happy to hear them. It also has the opening song/credits video in it and lots of pictures so if anyone has trouble downloading I can delete the video and reupload, just let me know.
Edit: Second comment has the PPT without the video if anyone wants it!
