Trip to Mars: an Immersive Murder Mystery

Tuesday, January 57:00—8:00 PMOnline

Rumor has it that there has been some foul play on the planet Mars! After a secret mission went
awry, an astronaut has gone missing. The final transmission was concerning and we were hired to investigate. Can you help solve the mystery and find a way home? 

If your child loves mystery themed novels and detective shows, then this class will give them the
chance to test their critical thinking skills in hypothetical situations based in fantasy and reality. They will learn how to excel in puzzles and riddles and will find themselves using lateral thinking to be more creative in their guesses. The puzzles and riddles will involve colors, wordplay, shapes and math. The mysteries will be presented to the class through images and text on the screen. 

More About the Class:

The presenter will narrate the story and explain each puzzle, encouraging students to use what they see or hear to make informed guesses. They will look for misdirections, and break down the steps necessary to solve the puzzles. Then, they will share and debate hypotheses with their classmates ultimately working together to solve the mystery before class ends.
