Getting started
SpellQuest turns your state's grade-level standards into a fun, personalized spelling practice.
- •Create a free account, then add a child profile (first name, birthday, grade, and a 4-digit PIN).
- •Each speller gets their own profile card on the Start screen — tap it to begin.
- •Words are pulled from your state's standards for the child's grade, so practice matches what's taught in class.
- •Everything syncs across devices once you're logged in.
Starting & finishing sessions
A session is 10 words. Each word is worked twice — hear it, see the definition and a sentence, then type it.
- •Tap a profile, enter the child's PIN, and a session of 10 words begins.
- •Each word is worked twice: the app reads it aloud, shows a definition and a sentence with the word blanked out, and the child types it into letter boxes.
- •Type each word correctly twice in a row to complete it.
- •After 5 wrong attempts on a word, 'Start Over' lets the child retry that word from scratch (once per word).
- •Finish all 10 words to see a summary with confetti and earned points.
How words are chosen
Selection balances fresh words, trouble words, and any custom words you add.
- •Words come from your state's standards for the child's grade.
- •Trouble words (5+ attempts) are prioritized in future sessions until mastered.
- •Up to 10 custom words can be added per child — these are mixed into sessions.
- •Recently used words are avoided so sessions feel fresh.
Scoring & rewards
Points, streaks, and badges keep kids motivated.
- •Each completed word earns points; finishing a session gives a bonus.
- •Lifetime points and mastered-word counts carry over across sessions.
- •Streaks build for words completed on the first try.
- •Badges unlock for milestones like '10 words mastered' and consistent streaks.
Editing a profile
- •Open the dashboard (protected by your dashboard PIN) to manage spellers.
- •Change a child's grade, difficulty, or custom words anytime.
- •Reset a child's PIN or progress from their profile page.
- •Profiles are removed from the dashboard.
Account & dashboard
- •Your dashboard PIN protects the management area from children.
- •Set or change the PIN from the dashboard.
