The National Spelling Bee

[Jay Anderson]

In May of this year, 2013, a young man of 13 won $30,000 and prizes (and a huge trophy) for spelling words correctly.  I've met children that tell me they're going to wait until they become an adult and play in the NBA or get a job for money.  Some say they don't have to pay for anything since their parents or relatives will just give them whatever they want.  but why wait or ask when one can work now via learning about words and make the money of their own?

3rd grade is the first opportunity students at Daniel's school have to participate in a spelling bee.  Studying with Dr. Black is proving to be tremendous help in my preparing him for it.  There's no time to wait.
