Murder Mystery #1
John, Paul, George and Ringo all live in the same house.
One day, John and Paul go out to see a movie.
When they return home, Ringo is dead!
He is lying on the floor in a puddle of water and broken glass.
It is obvious that George is the killer – but he won’t be punished.
Why not?
Ask your partner Yes/No questions to solve the mystery.
eg: Was George angry? / Is Ringo really dead? / Are John and Paul afraid of George? / etc…

Murder Mystery #2
A man left home running as fast as he could.
After a short time, he turned left and continued running.
Then he turned left, running even faster.
He turned left once more, running back towards home.
In the distance he could see a masked man waiting for him at home.
So, he stopped and ran back the other way.
Who is the masked man?
Answer:
The men are playing baseball.
The masked man is the catcher waiting at the home plate.
The runner is running around the bases.
Your partner will ask you questions. You can only answer YES or NO.
Give hints when you partner asks for them:
Hint #1: The men are not scared.
Hint #2: The men probably know each other.
Hint #3: They are wearing very similar clothes.
Hint #4: They are playing a game.
