Spelling Bee
Emily won (tied) her class spelling bee a couple of weeks ago, so she was in the school-wide spelling bee today. They took the top two spellers from each class, plus a few extra for good measure. About forty kids in all.
Emily did very well in the bee, and ended up finishing tied for 3rd place. (There were three other kids who also tied for 3rd.)
Her most impressive word: aggrandizement
The word that took her out: cellulose (she hadn't heard that word before)
Not bad for a 4th grader competing against 5th and 6th graders! :-)

tell Emily we are proud of her and she should have know that the correct spelling is "sellyouloss" But then perhaps she is destined to be an Ingineer like me. Gpa
