Just a Little Bragging!

Last week, Avery's Language Arts teacher, Mrs. DeVido, thought it would be fun for the kids to have their own little Spelling Bee in their class. They started off with the second grade word list. As kids were eliminated, they advanced to the next list. By the end of their class on Tuesday, they were up to the fifth grade list and it was down to two kids, Avery and one other girl!

So Tuesday night, Avery studied the list and went to school on Wednesday for the Finals. And she won!!! She was so excited! Of course, the first question Cory and I both asked her was, "What was the winning word?"  But she couldn't remember, go figure! We are still very proud of her! Her prize was that, not only did she not have to take the spelling test on Friday, but she got to call out the words for the test for the rest of the class! Very cool!
