How Many Points Have Your Students Collected?

What are Spellzone points?

While working on Spellzone, students collect effort points and achievement points. These rewards are displayed as medals and medallions.

Effort Points

Effort points represent effort made and one point is awarded for every learning activity the student attempts.

Learning activities include: course pages; the Look, Say, Cover, Write, Check activity; pattern-recognition games; and problem-solving games. These activities are found throughout the course and in the Word Lists section.

Students are also rewarded a certificate upon completing a course unit.

Achievement Points

Achievement points represent student achievement and up to five points are awarded for each test activity completed.

Test activities include: course tests, the Listen and Spell test, and voice and vocabulary games. These activities are found throughout the course and in the Word Lists section.

The number of awarded points depends on the score achieved:

100% = 5 points
90% - 99% = 4 points
60% - 89% = 2 points
1% - 59% = 1 point
0% = 0 points

If a student improves their score on a test activity, their new score will replace their original one.

What do the points count towards?

Student Titles

Student titles are awarded based on achievement points. Each student begins as a Newbie and works their way up to a Grandmaster.

League Tables

Effort and achievement points count towards the Spellzone League Tables. There are three tables which are updated weekly: Schools, Classes, and Students.

The more points a student collects, the higher they will rank.
