| The Penn State Science Lions came to East Derry on October 3. They are graduate and undergraduate students at Penn State who are majoring in sciences. They bring their program to rural schools so the children can see what some scientists do for a living. This program was on forensic science. The children were given a worksheet with characteristics of some suspects. After each station they were to cross off the suspects that were no longer suspects because of the evidence they found. | |
| The scene of the crime. A cookie jar is broken and there is some evidence found. A piece of hair. The children had to look at it under the microscope to see what color hair it was. | |
