             Mastery Club

I found out about this club from another teacher and if you would like to look at her website click here http://www.redmond.k12.or.us/patrick/renz. This club is designed to have children go "above and beyond" the duties of the classroom. All you have to do is learn all about the topic, and then during free time, recess, or after school come and tell Mrs. Boyd the answers and if you found anything else that interested you about the topic. Once you earn a place in the Mastery Club Hall of Fame your name stays on the wall until I retire.  After you accomplish one topic it earns you one star. If you earn at least 15 stars you will earn a place on the Hall of Fame.
