Unit 5
Points: 100

between the time and day when crimes occur which aids in crime analysis. Example:
Weekdays between 3:00 and 5:00 p.m., houses are being broken in to and video games
are taken may tend to lead investigators towards kids getting out of school. This
assignment provides an opportunity to analyze data to show crime patterns.

Day of the month (date)

Comments
• If there is a time range (example: left house at 8:00 a.m. and
returned at 4:00 p.m.), note this in a comment column.
