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, either by looking in the library or using the websites given. Then you
will need to record your answers in your Scholar’s Club notebook, memorize your
answers, and finally, tell your
teacher you are ready to give the answers. You must tell your answers during
recess, lunch or before or after school. You can become a 1 star
member, all the way up to an 116 star member! Once
you earn at least 15 stars, you will be entered into the Lewis Leopards
Scholar’s Hall of Fame.
Learning
never ends - thank goodness! Good
Luck and have fun! **A
Note to Parents and Students: I have made every attempt to make sure
the links below are kid-friendly. However, remember the rules of safety on the
Internet. Always immediately exit
out of any pop-up windows that appear.
Never click on any advertisements on the WebPages. Finally, always tell your teacher if you
see something that you think might be inappropriate.** |
