The Case of the Missing Part of Speech is an intriguing mystery with humor and songs that has performance-proven appeal to elementary school students. It may be performed before audiences or read and sung in the classroom as part of a Language Arts unit on the parts of speech. Three principle roles - Detective Hargraves; Hector, the Bloodhound; and professor McMertrue - speak and sing solos. The investigators, working for the Tracers of Lost Parts of Speech Agency (any number of students), also speak and sing as well as provide humorous motions. Any size class or cast can act in supporting roles as the eight parts of speech. Costumes, scenery, and props are kept to a minimum and the entire cast is on stage during the whole play, eliminating the need for backstage supervision.
