3rd Grade Spelling Bee

Jayden competed in the 3rd grade Spelling Bee today.  They chose the top 3 spellers in each class, so there were 12 spellers.  He worked really hard all week practicing spelling words!  All the kids did really well, so it lasted over an hour!  Jayden ended up getting 2nd place!  He was very excited! 

Before the Spelling Bee started.  He's nervous

 

Waiting his turn

 

Down to the final three!

 

 Two left...

They gave him a cool trophy and some candy.  Just in case you wanted to know, the word he got out on was 'waste'.  The judges had to start giving trickier words that have multiple spellings and Jayden forgot to ask for a sentence so he spelled the other 'waist'. 

We are so proud of him!  Good job Jayden!
