Critical Thinking Game: Detective Dan and The Musicians of Abbey Road is based on the same idea as "The Einstein Intelligence Quiz". Gather information from clues and compile the information into the answer grid to show (in this particular mystery) 5 musicians names, what instruments they play, what pets they own, what nationality they are and what their hobbies are.

This activity stretches the brain to take into consideration many factors, some clues being a little cryptic...It takes some thinking to work it all out.

Included with the PPT activity is the printable PDF worksheet for the students to compile their information and write their answers on to.

The lesson covers many areas of learning incorporating some flag knowledge of the 5 countries involved, nationalities, genres of music (in the characters names), instruments, animals, reading, comprehension, prepositions, critical thinking, problem solving and much more...It's super fun.
• Vocabulary -
Characters - Jazzy Jeff, Bluesy Bill, Salsa Sally, Hip-Hop Henry and Rockin' Ray

• Nationalities - American, Spanish, Australian, English and French

• Hobbies - Basketball, Reading, Riding Bikes, Photography and Tennis
