LOL The only thing I was good at with grids was using them to figure out whodunit.

A mystery, basically what i think she's referring to though are logic puzzles like you see in word puzzle magazines. otherwise whodunit's are another term used for the mystery genre in both movies, tv and books

Well, to be more exact, a Who Dun It as it's supposed to refer to when spaced properly, refers more to a MURDER mystery thing.

I can't remember what kind of mystery they had us figuring out in school. I just remember the fun charts they showed us how to use to figure 'em out.

Well, I've seen a wide variation of logic puzzles that use grids, though they can go under a wide variety of names(and since Tam is from canada her schooling could have varied quite differently then ours) But I"m more familar with the term just as a murder mystery term period, typically just as an alternative name of the genre. But I grew up knowing the term because of my grandmother who constantly read them when I was little XD.

Edit: Pic of the type of Logic puzzles I see in word puzzles http://www.pinkpt.com/wp-content/upload ... nchart.gif only difference is the clues are not shown to the side, so you can't actually solve this particular one.
