I Can't Be Modest!

Room 24, YOU ROCK!

We had the school spelling bee today and our four participants who had been diligently studying their words over the last few weeks, took 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th place! WOW!

AG took 3rd place and will be representing us at the district bee at Dupont on the 28th. I will be there with my daughter and we will be cheering her, and everyone on! She was sick as a dog the morning of the bee, but she stuck it out and went home to recover right after.

Great job to HM... "paddock" was the one that took him out, but fourth place is awesome and he was cool as a cucumber up there! MT was so relaxed, she doesn't even remember what word she missed. Next year in fifth grade, she is determined to do better than fifth place, she'll be back! AM missed "vigilante", which I have trouble spelling with a dictionary.

I am also proud of all of room 24 for cheering on your classmates and giving them all high 5s and pats on the back for a great effort. We all achieve more when we work together as a team.

Donuts for everyone!
