Ask any of the third or fourth grade students participating in the Spelling Bee what the one rule was they must use as they spelled some 212 words and they will tell you, “say it – spell it – say it.”
Twenty-eight third graders and 17 fourth graders from six Wisconsin elementary schools met at the Wisconsin Conference office, Monday, March 25, 2019, from 10:00 am to 1:30 pm for the competition. Each student competed within their own grade in the first round and then the top six from each grade competed against each other in the final round.
The top speller from the final round of the Spelling Bee was Joel Siner from Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus. He didn’t hesitate to give credit to his teacher, Althea Elliott, for practicing the spelling words with him. Before sitting down, he asked Linda for the microphone and gave some experienced advice, “Study hard for next year, third graders!”
The top six spellers from each grade:
3rd Grade
1st Abby Britain, Three Angels Christian School
2nd Adam Ly, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
3rd Jacqueline Johnson-Pottinger, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
4th Dawson Cha, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
5th Eden Denis, Three Angels Christian School
6th Jazmin Garrett, Otter Creek Christian Academy
4th Grade
1st Natalie Flores-Yang, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
2nd Chiang Cha, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
3rd Abigail Crim, Green Bay Adventist Junior Academy
4th Joel Siner, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
5th Alexis Medrano Lozano, Milwaukee SDA School – North Campus
6th Dariel Gagatam, Petersen Elementary School
We enjoyed seeing each and every student participate and hope this helps instill a desire in them to keep learning and practicing their words.
