RULES

1. The Spelling Bee is conducted in rounds. Each speller remaining in the Spelling Bee at the start of a round spells one word in each round. The spelling bee will be conducted only orally.

3. Once the pupil has started spelling the word, he/she may not start again from the beginning if the pupil has made a mistake.

4. The pronouncer strives to pronounce words clearly.

5. The pronouncer responds to the speller’s requests for a definition, sentence, part of speech, and alternate pronunciation(s).

6. The pronouncer may offer word information without the speller having requested that information if the pronouncer senses that the information is helpful.
