About this template

This template is designed to be used during spelling bee competitions, either as a standalone event or integrated into language arts lessons. It provides a structured yet fun way to improve spelling skills.

How it works

This template utilizes two randomizer and a scoreboard widget to manage the competition. The randomizer selects words from a pre-set list, ensuring fairness and unpredictability. Each student, within two teams, takes turns spelling the word provided by the randomizer. If a student spells a word correctly, the teacher updates the scoreboard to reflect the point.

The competition continues until all words have been used or a set time limit has been reached. You can also use the scoreboard to keep track of individual or team scores, fostering a competitive yet educational environment.
