to Mrs. Cowan's
Club Einstein
What is Club Einstein?
Club Einstein is
"learning" club that was created to help Mrs. Cowan's students learn new
"stuff" by researching things in books and on the Internet.
How do I join?
All you have to do is answer one or more of the
questions to the right and give your answer(s) to Mrs. Cowan, either in
class or by e-mail in order to
become a member. Earn
points for each correct answer and get your name listed on the Club Einstein
Scoreboard. The more questions you answer correctly, the more points
you earn. Mrs. Cowan's student with the most points at the end of
each nine weeks wins a cool prize from one of the "MANY"
treasure boxes that can be found in our classroom!
Do I have to answer all of the questions?
You are not required to
answer all of the questions. You
may answer as many questions as you wish from as few as one to all of
them. Just remember, your first answer is the only
answer that can earn you points for each question. You will not be
permitted to change your answer once it has been submitted so take your
time to research each question.
How do I find the answers?
You can look for the
answers in books, encyclopedias, your textbooks, and on the Internet.
You can also find the answers by asking Mom, Dad or a really smart
friend. Just remember, Mrs. Cowan will not tell you the
answer. You need to look for it.
How long do I have to answer the questions?
Each set of questions will
remain on the Club Einstein page for one to two weeks. You can only
earn points for questions that are currently listed on this page.
Have fun!
