How to Write the Promotional Piece of a Spelling Bee

Spelling bees are opportunities for students to refine their spelling skills while engaging in friendly competition with their peers. Teachers can create promotional materials for a spelling bee to attract students, parents, other teachers and administrators to the event.

Instructions

    • 1

      Determine a theme for your spelling bee promotional materials. Set your spelling bee apart from other promotional materials with a sports, movie or musical theme. Feature pictures of students dunking letters or words into a basketball hoop or pitching letters to one another for a sports theme or create a poster based on a popular movie but include information on the spelling bee in place of film actors and movie information as a movie theme.

    • 2

      Write the information of your spelling bee in keeping with your theme. If you chose a basketball theme say "Join us at our Spelling BEE-ball tournament." For movie themes write "Now Spelling: Ms. Morton's 3rd grade class in 'Bee Movie.'"

      Include the level of competition for the spelling bee in your materials. For example, you may write "Competing in the final round for a class pizza party" in your advertisement.
