What You'll See

✅Setting up the bee on your phone: spellers, word lists and options

✅Connecting the classroom screen with a code or QR — no login there

✅Giving the word: the board reads it with a sentence and meaning

✅Say again, Slowly, Definition and Sentence, one tap each

✅Marking Correct or Incorrect, and Undo for a wrong tap

✅A calm miss — no buzzer, no red screen

✅Team bee steals, so nobody sits out (tutor accounts)

✅Round points, the winners, results, certificates and a practice list
