Description

From the website: Use forensics to teach your students about entomology with this lab activity. Students will first observe and record how various factors influence the development of an insect’s life cycle using insects that are collected from a source of pork that you provide. They will then apply this information to a crime scene scenario in order to estimate the time of death, if the body was moved, possible suspect/victim interactions by identifying each species, and create a timeline for the sequence of appearance for each species found on the body. The kit comes with a set of 52 forensic insect identification cards, enough materials for eight setups, a teacher’s guide, and student copymasters.
