Spelling bee

Our school, Victory Christian School, had a spelling bee yesterday. Andrew had participated in previous bees at his old school, but this was Matt's first time.Andrew got 3rd place for his grade. He did well despite the fact that spelling is not his strength.

Matt surprised us with a 2nd place finish. He actually moves on to the next round. But don't get too impressed, he was 2nd out of 4. He took the bee pretty seriously. When he brought home the spelling bee list, he practiced by himself with this very unusual technique - he would say a word and spin around the table spelling it. He did this for dozens of words.
