1. Go to the How Stuff Works website: How Private Investigators Work
"Thanks to books, movies and TV
shows, many people have a clear mental image of the stereotypical private
investigator. He works from a dimly-lit, cluttered, sometimes smoky office
in a less-than-affluent part of town. There, he greets a series of walk-in
clients -- often women -- who have been wronged in one way or another. Finish reading... 2. Go to: Eyes on Spies and read the article 3. Using the information from these two articles, you are to create a short story based on your fictional PI but you are to be as true to the profession as possible. There is to be nothing illegal or even questionable about the practices of your fictional character. 4. However, you are going to create this short story with other members of a group of 4 - 5 students. Each student is to write the Introduction. Then after 10 minutes, you pass your story onto the next student - however, you will fold over your introduction so they can't see it. The next student's job is to write the body of the short story. After 10 minutes, the process is repeated until all students have written an Introduction, Body, Reflection and Finale and the original piece of paper is back to the original student. 5. Open up your short story and read it. Share with the rest of the group. How funny is the story?
