Case #1: The Mystery of the Heirloom

Dear Detective,

An heirloom is a special object that a family can pass down for generations. Find an heirloom in your house. Then ask a parent to help you learn your heirloom’s story. Who did it belong to? How did it get passed down? Write down what you find out and put it in your evidence file.
