Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.

2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.

2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.

3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

Questions / Answers (teacher reference)

Question

Answer

1. Dear John, I still remember the day we met in History class. I have to take a cue from my favorite president and be honest. I saw you flirting with Dana the other day in the hallway. I understand you are still friends, but you need to understand how I feel. You weren’t supposed to talk to her anymore. You are mine. Just mine! Why? Why did you have to? No one can come between us. I love you forever… Lizzieabelincoln
2. John, I hope you know that I still have feelings for you. I have cared about you since the 8th grade. Being friends is so hard, especially seeing you so happy with Lizzie every day. Why did you leave me? You were supposed to be my superhero! Felicia and John against the world. Remember???!!?!?!superheropainting
3. Comments from Lizzie’s parents – “Lizzie is our only child, and we strongly feel our baby was too good for John. Of course this is a horrible tragedy, but we are kind of glad he won’t be a distraction anymore. He was always going to drag her down with the amount of time she followed him around on that golf course instead of spending time on her studies!”golfcourse
4. Text from John’s best friend, Kenny - “U took everything from me! I was trending. I was gonna be the next best thing when I made it to college. Because u cheated & won the tournament, I’m a nobody now! Thanks a lot man. We been best friends since pre-school... I can’t believe u did this to me.”trending
5. I never mean to hurt anyone. But sometimes I do stupid things or say stupid things, and it just makes things worse. Kenny is mad at me, my girlfriend thinks I’m cheating on her on top of her parents already hating me, and I keep unintentionally sending mixed signals to Felicia. Maybe I should just run away? I don’t know. My favorite teacher always says, “When you focus on the good, the good gets better,” so maybe I need to just focus on the good stuff. Like how I’m good at golf. Super excited for the sports banquet tonight at the school. Too bad I won't be able to chill with Lizzie. She’s home alone this weekend since her parents are out of town. I’m a little relieved though because Felicia has been saying she wants to meet up where no one can see us and acting crazy. No cap.focusonthegood
6. Police Report: Student found at 7am in library. Cause of death looks to be blunt force trauma to the head. No visible sign of weapon around the body. Hopefully someone other than these gnomes saw what happened?gnomes
7. Text found in Lizzie’s phone the night of the incident: Marcus hasn’t texted me back all night. I know he’s at his banquet, but it’s not like him to NOT text me at all. I’m heading to bed early. I just wish our love story was one that never ends like in all of those other books.lovestory
8. MARCUS STOP IGNORING ME. If you don’t wanna be with me, fine, but if you do, text me back. I know Lizzie can’t find out... if you want me too then delete this and text back. The code word is pineapple! If you say nothing by midnight, then I’ll keep hanging out with Dwayne at IHOP. At least he is someone who actually cares about me and isn’t leading me on.pineapple
9. Final clue: Janitor’s witness statement – “I was on the second floor cleaning the windows, when I heard some loud arguing coming from the library. I looked down, and I saw 3 people standing in a circle around the front of the library. One person was extremely tall and standing still, while the other 2 were throwing their hands in the air and seemed to be the main ones who were fighting about something. One had dark curly hair, but I couldn’t really see the other. Must have been the victim. I thought about checking it out, but then the fire alarm rang and everyone had to exit the building.”firealarm
10. I am extremely tall, and always still I am. I hang out in the library every day. I’m never late for Titan Time. I guard the pages of voices from other lands. Who am I? statue
11. “It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. It was just a fight. I pushed him into something heavy, but I didn’t realize it would...”theend
