This is our second year participating in the Great American SpellCheck! Here’s how it works: your child studies grade-specific word lists and are tested in their classrooms. The three students who spell the most words correctly from each class will then move on to represent their class in the school wide spelling bees! Your student needs your help in the following ways:

April 11th – April 17th: Encourage your students to practice, practice, practice!

April 18th & April 19th: Spell Check Tests! These tests will be done in the classroom to determine the top three spellers from each room.

Wednesday April 20th: Teachers will send home with each participating student the student’s graded tests and an invitation for the finals. The top three students will be chosen from each classroom to participate in the school-wide spelling bee.

Friday April 22nd: School-wide spelling bees will take place in the gymnasium!

•  LE- 9-10am

I hope that you share our excitement about our school’s participation in the Great American SpellCheck. Together we can encourage strong spelling skills and build a fantastic community! Please be sure to ask questions if you have them.
