Cranium Club

Dedicated to the idea that “Learning Never Ends.” This is a club for any of you who are interested in achieving “above and beyond” the normal classroom expectations.  To become a member of this club you can pick from the list of Challenges and learn all about that challenge. (see “Challenges” list below)


        When you can answer a ‘Challenge’ correctly then set up a time with Mrs. Murillo to tell Mrs. Murillo the answer (s).


         You can become a 1 star member, all the way up to an 84 star member!  But when a Student achieves 15 stars then they enter the Cranium Club Hall of Fame.  Their name will appear on the Hall of Fame list until the day I retire from teaching. Students will also receive a certificate and special prize from Mrs. Murillo when they enter the Hall of Fame! Challenges should be completed on the student's own time and only when all work is completed!
