Gold Club

Mastery Club

This is a club for students who are interested in going above and beyond normal classroom expectations. You can become a 1 star member all the way to a 75 star member. Once you become a 20 star member your name will be placed on the Mastery Club Hall of Fame. Your name will stay there until I retire.

It’s easy! Choose any question from this page and research it using the website provided in order to find the correct answer. Then, copy the question and answer into your Mastery Club notebook. Bring it to me, and I will give you a gold coin. Remember that all your gold coins can add up to lots of classroom money.
