Wandell's 4th and 5th grade G&T students attended a CSI program at the Nj Meadowlands.  Students were introduced to a “theft” from the MEC’s science building and were challenged to act as Forensic Scientists.  They first distinguish between observations and inferences, and then focussed on the analysis of physical crime scene evidence with the help of chemistry, chromatography, and dactyloscopy (fingerprint) methods.  Investigators  communicated results, synthesized the entire body of evidence, and deliberated over which suspect is the most likely culprit.
