Welcome to 4A
Parents and Students,
Thank you for all your hard work and support this year. I enjoyed watching these children grow academically and spiritually. This class was a pleasure to teach and I will truly miss them.
Have a wonderful summer!
Mastery Club
This "club" is for students who want to go above and beyond what we learn in the classroom and are up for a challenge.
Students can pick any challenge, research and complete their task in a Mastery Club notebook they keep at home or in school. Once they have shown me their research, they can study the information and come to me during free time to complete their challenge.
Once they complete a challenge they will receive class money. I will keep track of the challenges and award the students a certificate at the end of the year. I will also post their name on the wall of our classroom for all to see!
Thank you to Mrs. Renz who has given me permission to adopt this wonderful project. Good Luck Students and Have Fun!!!
