Participation in the Scripps National Spelling Bee has been a Village Home tradition since 2003 when we sent our first speller to the Regional Bee and on to the National Spelling Bee. We've had two national semifinalists in the national Bee (no small achievement!) and three more competitors.
One of the best ways to achieve success in this exciting event is to start thinking early! The Scripps folks are really helpful about this. As the official host to Oregon Homeschoolers for this year's Bee, we have access to the Great Words, Great Works reading program, a list of 36 books that the Bee has selected for their rich vocabulary, engaging content and grade-appropriate subject matter.
All of the words from the 2024 School Spelling Bee Study List can be found in the Great Words, Great Works books, allowing you to get to know these words in the context of great stories!
The 2024 Great Words, Great Works book list is divided by grade level just like our study resources. You can learn more about the Great Words, Great Works book list at spellingbee.com/book-list, and download this year's list.
Village Home will start taking registrations for this year's Bee in January - Bee is scheduled for February 6, 2024. Save the Date!
