'Spelling is like going on a world trip, and I think that's fun,' said 10-year-old Brihasa Weduru from Texas, 'because there are lots of places, like the etymology of the words, so you can learn about their cultures.'
"After I won the regionals, I made those, so I can get motivated," said Brihasa Weduru, who made miniature clay versions of theScripps National Spelling Bee trophy."Spelling is like going on a world trip, and I think that's fun," she said,"because there are lots of places, like the etymology of the words, so you can learn about their cultures."
When she's not prepping with words, Gabriella stays busy by making elaborate pop-up greeting cards for birthdays and holidays. "However they do in the competition, it's going to be great, and the things that they remember are not going to be how many rounds they lasted," Loeffler said."It's going to be really the deeper learning that they do during the week.""Even if you lose, it's OK," Brihasa Veduru said."The journey is worth it."
