[LM_NET] Target: enrichment activities for 5th grade

[Sharon Hamer <shamer@MEDFIELD.MEC.EDU>]

HI,

I am new to the elementary school level and will have  a small number of
the 5th graders in here each week for "enrichment". They will not be
graded on their work, but it is not a study hall. I am looking for
self-directed activities that are educational, such as read a magazine
article and write a summary, practice keyboarding, do research on
long-term projects. They can't do homework or play games. I want it  to be
fun to come to the LMC but not so much fun that the other kids think these
kids have the period off. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
