I'd love to have another spelling bee. It could be at the class level if not
at the grade level.
I was wondering, would using the vocabulary be too difficult? We did that in
fourth grade. Take a look at the vocab words. If we used them as the
spelling bee words, beginning with the most recent, would it be doable?
Or should we use the spelling words? I just worry that the spelling words
might take too long to find a winner.
