Broncho Research Club

What is the Bayless Broncho Research Club?
The Bayless Broncho needs your help finding answers to the questions listed below. Each question has a certain amount of points you can receive. You can answer as many of the questions that you would like. You may find the answers by using your research skills. Answers could be found in the encyclopedia, atlas, almanac, or on the Internet. You can ask a parent or a friend to help if you want. Spelling counts! If your answer is misspelled, you will not receive any points for your answer.


How do you participate?

You must e-mail or turn in your answers to Miss Ryan by the due date. The questions will change about every two weeks. Once you have earned points, your name will go on the scoreboard.


What are the prizes?

The individual at the end of each quarter with the most points will receive a free book ($5 or less) from the book order of his/her choice. The top 3 winners during the year will receive a special certificate and ribbon at the end of the year. They will also have their names placed in the Broncho Research Hall of Fame. Good Luck!
