It went for 13 rounds!!! Out of all the class winners from grades 3-5, our Jack is his school’s spelling bee runner up!!!! He did such a good job and was SO close to winning.
We are so, so proud!
His words:
We are so, so proud!
His words:
- (Unknown first word)
- Window
- Lullaby
- Ineffective
- Scuttlebutt
- Moustache
- Superintendent -- (down to 2 spellers)
- Clamorous (opponent's was "epaulet"!)
- Chauffeurs
- bitumen
- Ivories **(His opponent had the word “civility,” but she was hesitant and it was clear she wasn't sure of the word. For some reason she then disappeared out of zoom. When she finally came back, no reason given as to why she left - and they did directly ask if she lost internet connection. She said no to that. Anyway, they gave her a new word which she easily spelled.)
- Resonance (Jack missed the word. His opponent got the word “mallard” correct.)
- Her winning word was "Foolscap."
Such an AWESOME job! Way to go, kiddo!
