The Saying Bee is modeled after a traditional spelling bee, but the focus is the correct pronunication of nouns pulled from the weekly Guided Reading Notes.
The first Saying Bee is scheduled for Wednesday, 7 Feb 2024 and will cover the pronunciatyion lists for weeks one, two, and three GRN. See below.
A set of flash cards with Flippity.net was created to help you prepare for next week’s Saying Bee #1. You should be able to access them here

ONLY THE TOP TEN FINISHERS WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR A REWARD. ONCE THE SAYING BEE CHAMPION HAS BEEN CROWNED, HE OR SHE WILL HAVE HIS OR HER CHOICE FROM THE LIST. THEN THE CHOICE GOES TO THE RUNNER UP, AND SO FORTH UNTIL THE TOP TEN HAVE EACH CLAIMED THIER PRIZE. SOME REWARDS WILL GO UNCLAIMED.
