Year 8 students from various schools in the region were invited to compete in a series of pronunciation and spelling challenges in English, testing themselves across three levels of difficulty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The aim of this activity is to strengthen students\u2019 English language skills, emphasising the importance of spelling and word comprehension. Additionally, this exercise evaluated participants\u2019 listening abilities, an essential skill for learning a second language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> We thank the teachers for their commitment and support in preparing students for this challenge. Our congratulations go to all the semi-finalists, especially to the representatives from each campus who advanced to the grand final, scheduled for 22nd November in Valpara\u00edso.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"26952\" src=\"https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-1-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-1-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-1-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-1-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-1-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"26951\" src=\"https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-4-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-26951\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-4-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-4-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-4-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ssr.cl\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/web-Spelling-Bee-4-1.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On the morning of 8th November, the Chilean North American Institute of Culture in Valpara\u00edso hosted the semi-final of the First Inter-School Spelling Bee, an event held simultaneously across the Valpara\u00edso, Vi\u00f1a del Mar, and Quilpu\u00e9 campuses.
