What is it? A chance to practice and show off your English vocabulary by competing with your peers to spell simple, moderate and difficult words!
Rules :
Students will be given the official list of Spelling Bee words to practice in advance.
The competition will be oral; contestants must spell the words orally and the use of pens or pencils and paper will not be allowed.
Each student will spell at least 2 words
Students may ask the teacher to repeat the word once
Students have one chance to spell their word
Students have 30 seconds to attempt their word
Once a student has begun to spell a word, they may not ask for a word to be re-pronounced, defined, or used in a sentence.
Only the spelling used on the official word list will be used.
When a student fails to spell a word correctly, the next contestant, in the same round, will be given the same word to spell.
This is only the practice round. The final round will take place in April.
The top 3 students will receive prizes!
