The Jr. Forensic Scientist Program gets to the bottom of a crime scene...

On day one of the Jr. Forensic Scientist Program, I thought the crime scene was not a crime scene because nothing appeared to be wrong.

So far, this program has taught me how to take fingerprints, how to tell what kind of prints they are, how fingerprints tell who a person is and the background that person came from.

Now, I think there can always be more to a scene than what you see when you are standing in it.

I like this class because you get to learn about crime scenes. I also like this class because it is fun to participate in.

On day one of the Jr. Forensic Scientist Class, I thought that the crime scene was not an actual crime scene. The place looked like it was a big mess. However, at the crime scene I learned how to take fingerprints and to test them to see who they belong to. Fingerprints are important because they can help determine who did the crime.

My idea about the identity of the criminal changed because at first, I thought Madera was the criminal. However, now I think Josh did the crime.

I like this program because of the crime scene and the fingerprints. However, I dislike using the computers. This class is a lot of fun but I don’t like to write.

When I walked into the crime scene of the Jr. Forensic Scientist Class, I did not think that the crime scene was a crime scene. However, due to this, I learned that you have to take your time to discover an answer. It is important to take your time because if you rush you would get the wrong answer. That’s how I found out that my first idea was wrong. My idea changed when I heard it was a crime scene.

I like the science because it is really fun to work with stuff.

In the Photography Program at York Middle School, we have been taking pictures concerning summer. Summer means flowers blooming in fields, trees get bigger and bigger, and there is water everyday. During the summer, people go to lakes and oceans and wear shorts and tank tops. That’s what summer means to me. Summer is also a fun time because you get to hang out with friends.
