The Spelling Bee | Mark Twain, Amy June Bates, Catherine Nichols

My little bookworm got out in the 2nd round of the District Spelling Bee today. Our district has 1,000 third graders, and she was 1 of 11 kids who made it!

Last night she was SO NERVOUS she was in floods of tears, and she was jittery this morning, but she did it anyway. She got bangle correct, and alderman incorrect.

And now after school she gets a huge ice cream sundae from The Screamery as a reward for bravery. 🙂

readordierachel Good for her! That ice cream is well earned 🙂 6y

DivineDiana Great gob! 👏🏻👍🏻👏🏻 6y

Kaye Great job ! Brings back memories. In 8 th grade I made it to Regionals. I was out with about 8 kids left. The word that got me was N I B L I C K . I had no clue how to spell that. It‘s some sort of an iron headed golf club. I‘ll remember it if I ever need to spell it again, which I probably won‘t. 6y

TrishB Cool 👍🏻 6y

Kayla.Adriena Aww my heart goes out to her! I was a very anxious third grade bookworm! I used to get questions wrong so I didn't have to participate in these things! She is so brave! 6y

MotionChickness Go her!!! 6y

Readingismyescape So brave. She should be very proud of herself. 6y

ravenlee That‘s fantastic! @kaye eighth grade regional or state level, i was the ninth kid left and got the word schefflera - which I‘ve never forgotten since! I‘ve also never encountered it anywhere else, since. 6y

Kaye @ravenlee Funny we can remember the word we missed from so long ago, and we have never needed to use it since. 😊 6y

Alfoster Yay!👏👏👏 6y

I never loosed my car before. I'm going to loose my car on you if you're not nice! 😂👏🏻 #LitsyHumor

booklover76 😂😂 I was once giving a friend of mine a hard time about the Cubs being in the playoffs. I told him they were going to lose. Except my phone auto corrected it to loose. 8y

Gezemice You can't have all those loose cars around. 8y

Sassy_Steph Oh my god!! Look at that car it's loose as a goose! ( said no one ever!) 8y

MandaChittles Can't.handle.the.loose.vs.lose.battle..... Drives me crazy!!!!! 8y
