Start writing below:
Last week someone stole the teachers lunch. It was my job to see who the suspect was. I was lucky to find three clues at the crime scene. Well the first clue was that the teachers' keys were left hanging in the door. The second clue i saw with my sharp eyes was muddy shoe prints all around the dirty messy floor leading to the teachers' clean desks with papers. The third clue I spotted was crumbs on the floor leading out to the quiet clock bay.i could tell by the footprint size that it wasn't friend number 2 because she has smaller feet so she was no longer a suspect to me. Friend number 1 had a different pattern on the bottom of her shoe so I crossed her off my list that left me with one last person. Could it be them?I turned and saw a black muddy old shoe half hidden under a kids bag. I know friend number 2 wears these shoes. I quickly ran off to the principal's office and told her I had solved the mystery using the clues.
I asked my friend nicely why did you do it. She said because i was so hungry and the lunch looked so delicious that i had to grab it while no one was looking. She was very sorry for what she had done.
