About
SpellBee says a word out loud in a British voice. Your child spells it. No ads, no chat, and no email or password for children - ever.
Spelling for UK primary school: Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, Years 1 to 6.
HOW IT WORKS
1. You sign up as a parent or a teacher and add a profile for each child.
2. You build a word list - this week's spellings from school, or import a National Curriculum list.
3. Your child opens the app, enters your family code and their own 4-digit PIN, and practises.
Children never have an email address or a password. They cannot sign themselves up, message anyone, or reach the subscription screen.
FOUR WAYS TO PRACTISE
- Digital Mode: the word is read aloud, your child types it and sees straight away whether it is right.
- Paper Mode: the app reads the list aloud at a set interval - 5, 10, 15 or 30 seconds - while your child writes on paper, the way a spelling test actually happens at school. You mark it together afterwards.
- Competition Mode: race against the clock.
- Review Mistakes: practise only the words that went wrong last time.
THE WORDS ARE YOURS
Type in your own list, or import the statutory word lists aligned to the National Curriculum:
- Year 1 common exception words, plus days and months
- Year 2 common exception words
- Year 3/4 statutory word list
- Year 5/6 statutory word list - the words behind the Year 6 SATs spelling paper
Every word is spoken in clear British English (Amy, Emma or Brian), at slow, medium or fast speed, repeated as many times as you choose.
YOU SET THE RULES
- Kids Lock, held behind your PIN, with the back button disabled
- A practice time limit from 15 to 60 minutes, and a daily word goal
- A cap on words per session
- Word order: sequential, random, or mistakes first
- Visual hints on or off; marking strict, standard or lenient
- Larger text for younger readers
Every child gets their own settings.
PROGRESS YOU CAN ACTUALLY READ
