Derek Davis/Staff Photographer Lucy Tumavicus, 14, of Portland won the Maine State Spelling Bee on Saturday after an exceptionally long competition which lasted 94 rounds. Inside a hushed lecture hall at the University of Southern Maine, 14 middle school students from around the state competed in the Maine State Spelling Bee on Saturday in what was the longest competition in recent memory.

One constant source of inspiration? The classrooms that tackle NaNoWriMo through our Young Writers Program. YWP educator Alexis Lyon talks about incorporating YWP into her class curriculum. I first saw NaNoWriMo’s Young Writers Program from a student teacher at Lincoln Middle School. My mentor also had the YWP progress chart hanging in the classroom for students who were participating in it outside of the classroom. The program was such a success for my 6th grade class. I think the hardest part of running the Young Writers Program is incorporating it into my curriculum plan for the year, though. Other obstacles I ran into were related to technology. I asked a student (Matthew Davis, now grade 7) if he thought there were obstacles. At the beginning of 6th grade I had a student that could piece together about 3/4 of a page of writing in a couple weeks.
