In a spelling bee, children stand up

one by one and spell hard words, letter

by letter. The first National Spelling

Bee in the United States was held in

1925. Only 9 children took part, and

the winner was Frank Neuhauser, age 11.

His winning word was gladiolus, the

name of a flower. Today, hundreds of

children take part every year!
