Spelling Bee

Today was the first grade spelling bee. Wyatt has been studying his words really hard, especially the past several days. He did great! I was so proud of him!! He made it to round 5. They started with 24 (very nervous) little first graders on stage. At the beginning of round 5 there were 10 kids left. Wyatt got the first word in round 5....AIRPLANE. He had some difficulty with this word when he first started practicing, but the last few times I have drilled him, he had spelled it correctly. Today, he left the "E" off the end. He was disappointed, but he handled it ok.
