I was so pleased with Navy, who got 100% on her regular spelling words, and 100% on her extra credit words.  We were both bummed on her Chinese, where she missed two…but when Navy contested one of them, it was made correct.  I asked Navy how she knew it was actually right, and she said, “Mom…I totally knew it, and whoever corrected it didn’t know it”.  And her teacher totally agreed.  Nice work Navy…who can see something more than just a bunch of chicken scratch.
I’d say that 23/24 on a Mandarin and English spelling test, where she only had a week to learn her words is pretty good.
(Please note number 10 is “dash” for her spelling word!  She got the biggest laugh about that — like she had a one up on the test because she already knew how to spell her brother’s name!)
