Creek View Spelling Bee

Creek View Spelling Bee

Creek View has signed up for the Scripps National Spelling Bee.  It is time to for our class to conduct its annual Spelling Bee to find a class representative for the Creek View Spelling Bee on Wednesday, December 18thAttached you will find a copy of some words to practice for our class Spelling Bee on Friday, December 6th.  Although the Spelling Bee is a wonderful opportunity to practice your spelling, you are not required to participate in this event.  However, I would like for everyone to try! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Fact and Opinion

Fact or Opinion?

  • To see if something is a fact, ask yourself, 
    “Can this statement be proven?
  • To check for opinions, ask yourself, 
    “Does this tell a thought or feeling?” 
     

  • Look for clue words such as 
  • feel, believe, always, never, none,
    most, least, best, and worst
