The crime scene | TeachingEnglish | British Council | BBC This is an activity that I've used with students of all levels. It's also good for getting students to really listen to each other and to take notes or just for some fun. Preparation The activity is based around a short video clip of a crime. Procedure You should split the class into two groups and tell one half that they are going to be the police and they are going to interview the witness to a crime. If you have a video that is in English you can play it with the sound on and, for higher levels, even extend the focus to reported speech, e.g. Technology-free crime scene If you aren't able to play a video clip, you can do a 'low-tech' version of this activity by cutting pictures out of a magazine. Put the students into pairs, one police officer and one witness, and have the witness from each pair come to the front of the class.Give each one a picture of a person to look at. This activity can also be a very useful lead in to discussions or vocabulary work on crime or description.

Desiree's Baby by Kate Chopin Madame Valmonde had not seen Desiree and the baby for four weeks. When she reached L'Abri she shuddered at the first sight of it, as she always did. It was a sad looking place, which for many years had not known the gentle presence of a mistress, old Monsieur Aubigny having married and buried his wife in France, and she having loved her own land too well ever to leave it. The roof came down steep and black like a cowl, reaching out beyond the wide galleries that encircled the yellow stuccoed house. Big, solemn oaks grew close to it, and their thick-leaved, far-reaching branches shadowed it like a pall. The young mother was recovering slowly, and lay full length, in her soft white muslins and laces, upon a couch. Madame Valmonde bent her portly figure over Desiree and kissed her, holding her an instant tenderly in her arms. "This is not the baby!" "I knew you would be astonished," laughed Desiree, "at the way he has grown. "And the way he cries," went on Desiree, "is deafening.
Jack the Ripper Map of Spitalfields & Whitechapel 1888 DETECTIVE STORY by Céline DELFOUR on Prezi The first whodunnit: How the murder of a three-year-old boy gave us the fictional detectives we know today By Geoffrey Wansell Updated: 02:00 BST, 17 July 2008 The sun's rays were just appearing over the horizon in the early hours of a Victorian summer's morning. In an elegant Georgian house in the hamlet of Road in Wiltshire, all was quiet. The prosperous Kent family - nine family members, and three servants - were all asleep in their beds. Or so it seemed. An hour after midnight the family's Newfoundland dog - notorious for reacting to the slightest provocation - had barked loudly, but no one paid the slightest attention. House of horrors - the first 'whodunnit' to capture the public's imagination It wasn't until just after 5am that Saturday that Elizabeth Gough - the family's 22-year-old nursemaid, who looked after the three smallest children of factory inspector Samuel Kent - woke up, and noticed that one of her charges, three-year-old Saville Kent wasn't in his cot on the other side of her room. But the child had not found his way to his mother's bed - far from it.
Constance Kent Jonathan Whicher was one of the original members of the Detective Branch which had been established at Scotland Yard in 1842. In 1860 he was called in to assist the investigation into the horrific murder of 4-year-old (Francis) Savile Kent. The child had been taken from the nursemaid's bedroom at night and was found, with his throat cut, in an outside privy in the garden of his family's house the next morning. When the nursemaid, Elizabeth Gough, reported the child missing at 7:15am to Mrs Kent, a search commenced for the child, who was found dead in an outside privy with his throat cut and a stab wound to the chest. The local magistrates soon became impatient for results from the local police Superintendent Foley's investigation, which was largely directed towards the nursemaid Elizabeth Gough who had had responsibility for the child. Whicher concentrated on a missing night dress, possibly blood stained, belonging to Constance, and there was also circumstantial evidence against her.
Mr. Preble Gets Rid of His Wife “Let’s run away together,” said Mr. Preble. “All righty,” said his stenographer. “My wife would be glad to get rid of me,” he said. “Would she give you a divorce?” “I don’t suppose so,” he said. “You’d have to get rid of your wife,” she said. Let’s go down in the cellar,” Mr. “What for?” “Oh, I don’t know,” he said. “We never did go down in the cellar that I remember,” said Mrs. “Supposing I said it meant a whole lot to me,” began Mr. “What’s come over you?” “We could pick up pieces of coal,” said Mr. “I don’t want to,” said his wife. “Listen,” said Mr. “There isn’t a good enough light down there,” she said, “and anyway, I’m not going to go down in the cellar. “Gee whiz!” “I don’t want to go!” “All right, all right,” he said. “Will you quit harping on that subject?” “We’ve been all over that,” said Mrs. “I just wanted you to know how things are,” said Mr. “I never believed that for a minute,” said Mrs. “You can say that now—after I told you,” said Mr. “Is that so? “Listen,” cried Mrs.
