Bee Coordinators have depended on our Natalie's Spelling Bee Organizers for 20+ years. For classroom or school bees, the Graded-List volume is in difficulty sequence, with groupings for 1st - 3rd grades, 4th - 6th grades, and 7th - 8th grades, plus a fair selection of formidable words to challenge even your brightest students. Our Organizers give bee coordinators everything they need to conduct a dynamic, first-class event. Each word has a simple, phonetic pronunciation(s), definition(s), and part(s) of speech, plus a carefully crafted sentence. This carefully crafted sentence is an excellent time-saver for conducting a first-class spelling bee and puts words in context for spellers who want to hear a word used in a sentence. Our Organizers have up to three alternate pronunciations to help keep your spelling bee professional and fair. Over 1,200 words are contained in each volume.
