# Spell a Bee

> Spell a Bee is an iPad spelling app for children in grades K-5 (roughly ages 5 to 11), made by Rocket Labs LLC. It helps kids learn new words and master their spelling. The app uses the Leitner spaced repetition method, an adaptive placement test that sets each child's starting level, and a virtual spelling bee stage where kids test what they know and build confidence. It is built for child privacy with no ads and no tracking of children.
