To encourage our students to learn the high frequency words, we set them the ‘30-Second Challenge’. Different year groups were given some of the most commonly used words from the English language. After a few weeks of practice, a competition was held in each class. Prizes were given to students who did well, and a certificate and special prize was given to the student in each class who could read the most words in 30 seconds.

A spelling bee is a competition where contestants are asked to spell a broad selection of words, usually to their degree of difficulty. The students had to familiarise themselves with the words they have already learnt in their levels. All the students took part in the competition on the Kahoot app and the top 10 students were selected from each class. Our local teachers and NETs facilitated the competition in the classroom exceptionally well and the students showed great positivity and enthusiasm. Students received a small gift for their participation and outstanding effort, while the winner received a certificate and a prize. The competition enhanced students’ self-confidence, developed their public speaking skills and the ability to thrive under pressure. Overall, the competition was a success, we witnessed students’ competitive side, dedication and hard work in thriving to be the best.
