Educational Resources

The Educational Resources Department is proud to offer a unique spelling competition for students in grades 1-8. In addition to a traditional campus-based spelling bee experience through our digital kit, we will also be offering the opportunity for the school winners to go on to compete in a virtual spelling bee competition across all ACSI regional divisions and even across the globe!

Participating in spelling bees significantly enhances students' academic success by improving their spelling, vocabulary, and overall understanding of the English language. Even the practice process required to compete can help in improving students’ communication and confidence. Beyond these benefits, spelling bees also develop valuable skills such as public speaking, adhering to precise rules, and the discipline of long-term study. While some students find their niche in sports, music, or the arts, for others, spelling bees provide a unique opportunity to excel and shine.

ACSI Spelling Bee Kit (ACSI members and non-members): Designed for grades 1-8, the Spelling Bee Kit is now available for schools to purchase for $290 and can be used to facilitate campus-based spelling competitions.

The deadline to purchase/pay for the Spelling Bee Kit for the 2024-2025 school year is December 20, 2024.

Each Kit includes the following:

  1. Instructions for running an ACSI Spelling Bee at your school
  2. Practice word lists - including 200-250 words with pronunciations and sentences; one list for each grade level: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5-6, and 7-8 (combined)
  3. Description of types of words to study
  4. Winner's and participant's certificate master template
  5. Spelling Bee Competition word lists (sent directly to the Coordinator) 

Spelling Bee Virtual Competition (ACSI member schools only): ACSI Divisional and International Spelling Bees are going digital! These are optional opportunities for the winning students of the grade 5-8 school-hosted Spelling Bees. The Divisional and International Spelling Bees will be online live competitions held in the spring of 2025. We are very excited to present these special opportunities, believing that this new format will allow greater cooperation between ACSI students by eliminating barriers such as travel time and cost. This will also give the students a chance to experience virtual collaboration across multiple cultures and institutions. While these competitions will be entirely online, links will be provided if others would like to participate in the virtual “audience.”

More information on dates and pricing will be coming in October 2024. To participate in the ACSI Divisional and International Spelling Bees, students must participate in a school-hosted Spelling Bee utilizing an ACSI Spelling Bee Kit purchased by their school.
