Crime Scene Science - Fingerprinting

Josh - Today we learnt how to identify fingerprints from different people and ourselves.

Ashni - Today we learnt how to use different skills to identify peoples fingerprints.

Yasmine- We displayed our fingerprints and named each feature.

Ethan - It was interesting when we went around the room to try and identify each persons fingerprints.  This was really hard.

Ashwini - Today we learnt how to be like a forensic scientist and we learnt how to show our fingerprints.  Fingerprints have different patterns.  At the end we had a guessing game and had to work out whose finger print we had.  It was very hard.


Claire - Today at Science Club we had to show many different science skills and try to recognize each others fingerprints.

Rohan - Today I learnt that being a Forensic Scientist is really hard work.  You need to keep on trying when something doesn't work.  You can't give up.

Selena - Did you know there are so many different types of fingerprints?




Matt F - There are different fingerprint types and I had an accidental pattern on my thumb.

Matt B - We learnt how to be Forensic Scientists and study fingerprints.  We tried to take latent fingerprints with baby powder but this was really hard.

Louis - Today we learnt about how to be Forensic Scientists and how to study fingerprints.  We learnt that there are 7 different types of fingerprint patterns.  Mine were mostly central pocket loops.  Who knew there were so many different fingerprint patterns?


Max - Today we studied fingerprints and we played a guessing game to see if we could figure out whose fingerprint we had received.  Instead I used the handwriting on the paper and matched it up to the writing on their fingerprint sheet. (Very clever!)
