Based on the Crime Scene Kitchen reality TV series where bakers must decide what type of dessert was made using just the crumbs and a few elusive clues, this worksheet engages student understanding of ingredients in the episodes. Students are given a link to the Season 1 Episode 1 video on YouTube and a range of questions that are answered throughout the episode. This is a great task to leave for a casual/relief/teacher absentee lesson or end of term/end of year activity as it can be used for any episode and any season of the TV series. Students are required to identify the clues left for the competitors, how the competitors determine the dessert they should make based on the clues, the criteria the judges are judging the dessert on and which clues were red herrings designed to test and distract the competitors. There is an extended response question on the challenges faced by competitors that can be used for more advanced students or as an extension task. The final activity gives students a list of clues to help them detect the mystery desserts. Answers are provided for this final activity.
