Join Mastery Club
|
This is a club for students who are interested in achieving "above and beyond" the normal classroom expectations. All you have to do is learn all about the topic, and then come tell Mr. Smith the answers during recess, or before or after school. Learning never ends - thank goodness!
You can become a one star member, all the way up to a Hall of Fame Member! Once you have completed 15 challenges, you will be inducted into the Hall of Fame! Once a student earns a place in my "Hall of Fame," his or her name stays on the wall until I retire someday!
