Hello Everyone!!! This is your speedy spelling monster Zainy coming to you with this week’s edition of……………………..The Spelling Buzz!!!!

 

I just wanted to zip through and give a big spelling shout-out to super spelling champion Arvind Mahankali.  Arvind was the 2013 Scripts National Spelling Bee winner. He is a 13-year old four time competitor and also the first boy to win the competition in 5 years.  Isn’t he awesome?  He never gave up, even after not winning three times. He knew he could do it, and he did it!!

In the past Arvind finished third in both 2011 and 2012, having struggled with words of German origin. Not this year! He won with the German word “Knaidel”, which is a type of dumpling.  Sounds like a lot of practice and studying to me!!!!

We monsters of Spelltopia want all of you out there to believe in yourselves the same way Arvind believed in himself.  Come along with me and all of the spelling monsters as we get you started on the road to becoming the future Spelling Bee champions!!!
