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 a topic, write it down, and come tell Mrs. Corderman at center time or recess. You can become a 1 star member, all the way to an 85 star member. If you become a 20 star member, you will be on Mrs. Corderman's Wall of Fame which will stay on the wall until I retire. Learning never ends, thank goodness!! I encourage everyone to take the challenge! </span></span><span style="color: #009900; font-size: 130%;">THE CHALLENGES....</span><br /><a href="about:blank" name="SS">SOCIAL STUDIES</a><br />Here's a Web Site to Assist You in Your Research.......<br />1.<br />Name the 7 continents.<br /><a href="http://www.cedarville.edu/academics/education/resource/geo/intermain/pbwebsmk.htm" style="color: blue;
