Hello my dear friend!
The famous detective Sherlock Holmes turned to us for help. He is looking for an assistant!
And today we want to test you, how your detective skills are developed! Ready? Go!
Divide into groups of 4-5 people. You are now a detective agency. Let's go!
Task 1
Turn on your logic!
Read short stories and think: how could this happen?
Write your answers on the form and give them to the teacher.
№1
Guy de Maupassant hated the Eiffel Tower. So every day, he had lunch in the one place where it couldn’t be seen. What was that place?
№2
Brendon sat in the coffee shop and found a fly in his drink. He asked the waitress to bring him another coffee. After he’d received a new cup and taken a sip he got angry. Brendon realized that it was the same cup of coffee that he had in the first place.
How did he know he had the same cup of coffee?
№3
Stan met a stranger whom he’d never seen before. Stan just heard about him and no descriptions of his appearance were ever mentioned. He wasn’t famous. Nevertheless, Stan understood immediately who the guy was.
How was this possible?
№4
An adventurer found a chest with treasures in a cave guarded by a pirate. He had 3 keys that were golden, silver and black. But only one of them could open the chest. The pirate would give the adventurer only one chance to reach the treasure.
If he chose the right key, he would take the chest. If he was wrong, the pirate would kill him right there. The only clue was this cipher: TGK HOE ELY DEN.
Which is the right key?
Task 2
Every detective must have keen eyesight! It's time to practice this. Find all words.
Circle them in the program Power Point.
Task 3
You managed to train your logic. Now we need to act quickly! You will have only 15 seconds to voice your answer. It will be a competition between detective agencies. Points will be received by the one who makes the correct solution to the riddle.
