Spelling Bee Information
3rd Grade and 4th Grade Students may participate in the school spelling bee, held after school on December 6, 2019.
ELA teachers will hold a classroom spelling bee to prepare for this exciting opportunity. The top two spellers from each homeroom class will move on to participate in the school-wide bee. The winner of that event will move on to compete in the district bee, then to regional and state competition, and finally on to the National Spelling Bee in Washington, D.C.!
Our classroom spelling bees will be held in November. during regular ELA time. Students will be given a list of words to study at least 2 weeks prior to the classroom bee. Winners of the classroom bees will be given an additional list of words to study for the school bee.
We will follow the rules of the Scholastic Spelling Bee. That means we will: repeat words, provide a definition if asked, provide a sentence using the word if asked, provide the origin of the word if asked, and allow participants to start over with the word using the same spelling with which they have already begun.
