We had a lively Picture Study discussion this morning about this piece of news: Five Masterpieces Stolen in Paris.
We viewed each painting, talked about how rare they were, talked about museums, and thieves~ and (most exciting to the kids): "How would you go about investigating this crime?"
It was quite fun to hear their ideas! [Isaac will be looking for footprints, Ella will be looking for a glove the thief may have left behind.]
And then we talked about DNA for awhile.
Very fun!

Have you seen Art Fraud Detective? It's fiction, about forgeries of famous paintings, and the reader is invited to figure out which paintings in the book are forgeries. Very fun.

Nope. But now I'm going to see if our library has it! :)
