SPELLING BEE
In addition to our exploration of literature, our Ignite School students also completed the first round of the Spelling Bee competition. The Spelling Bee has provided students to build and master complex vocabulary and spelling skills. Leading up to the competition, students engaged in friendly spelling competitions within the class, as well as being exposed to the words on the Spelling Bee list which motivated them and encouraged them to use these words in everyday conversations.
READING AT IGNITE SCHOOL
“Why do we read?” was the essential question that started our adventure. This straightforward question led to an extensive exploration of different literacy genres, their themes, and the reasons behind reading particular books in district settings. Through our library program, classroom libraries, and programs such as RAZKidz, we have promoted a love for reading across the school.
