This is for students who are interested in achieving "above and beyond" the normal classroom expectations. All you have to do is learn about the topic, and then write down the answers during your recess, lunch break, before or after school. You can become a 1-star member, all the way up to ???-star member! You'll be posted on the "Hall of Fame" chart as soon as you earn 15 stars. Your name will remain there indefinitely. Learning never ends ~ thank goodness! Goodluck! To get started you might want to get a notebook just for the "Mastery Club." After you have completed one or two questions, just turn your book into Mrs. Larimore or Mrs. Anthony so you can earn your star. YOU MAY USE THE WEBSITES BELOW TO HELP WITH YOUR RESEARCH OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF RESOURCE: (Check out the websites on Mrs. Larimore's webpage to also help find the answers) http://encarta.msn.com/ http://www.factmonster.com/
