The Spelling Card Game winner is...

...me!

Every Tuesday in my class we do Spelling Word Card Games. And, I will be the first to admit, I stink at it. I also stink at the game Concentration, which is basically what we play with our spelling cards.

The kids love to play me because they win. Legitimately. Not because I throw the game, but because I can't remember where cards are fast enough to win.

And, Laughingboy is pretty much the Champ in my class. It's a good thing too. The kid has horrible handwriting, but can spell pretty well. I'm thankful. If he can spell outloud that will help down the road as he improves in his writing skills.

So, today FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, I WON!

I beat Laughingboy.

And of course, the best part was at the end where he was laughing so hard that I got to laughing so hard that it hurt. I love that.

Laughing is so much fun.

So, I'll admit that we played two more games. Afterall, Laughingboy wasn't going to let me win without a re-match. And, I lost one game, and we tied the other. That's still the best I've done against him.

So for today, I'm a winner...

sort of.

Later!
