On Monday, we had our Spelling Bee Qualifier at school. For weeks our kids have been studying and finally it was the big day. Each student had to write ten words correctly in order to pass and participate in the BIG Spelling Bee on April 7th. We had thirty kids show up and nine qualified! They were all sooo nervous, since they have never done anything like this before. We had five kids at a time come into the classroom and one by one I read off their ten words. Sadly, if they got the first word wrong, they were out, but happily I had candy and pencils for everyone that participated.
Waiting for their turn to spell.
Calling out the words.
What? What is that word? Can you say it again?
I loved the confused looks on their faces.
Irena was there to give congratulatory hugs!!
These girls were sooo excited to qualify. They are all friends and the two waiting were more nervous and excited than the one who had to spell.
Next Stop the National Spelling Bee in Skopje!!! Don't worry Resen will be ready!!!
