To Bee or not to Bee
A traditional spelling bee. Who said spellings aren’t important after school?
A day long event, participants will be approached at random throughout the day and asked to spell five words in increasing order of difficulty. Those that spell all five will be awarded first place and those who get four right will be awarded second place.
Original object—a newspaper article. Final object—a poem. The process? A competition we call newspaper blackout.
Rules:
1. An article of an English newspaper will be handed out along with a pencil
2. You have to be as creative as possible and create a poem by blackening out the words you don’t want.
3. It could be a short poem, or a witty one-liner.
4. On the basis of wit and humour, first and second places will be awarded.
5. Only one article will be handed out to one person, so scratch out words wisely.
6. Time allotted- 30 minutes.
