Mastery Zone

Mastery Zone is the AI-driven EdShed tool that ensures each student’s learning is focused on the words and spelling patterns they need to master in order to progress. Powered by our own Nano Bees, Mastery Zone begins by guiding each student through a mini-diagnostic to determine their strengths and areas for improvement.

Once a baseline has been established, our Nano Bees select 10 Focus Words that will come up frequently during game play. These 10 words will be combined with other spelling words from the Stage the student is on. Once a word has been spelled correctly, it is played on harder levels until a student has mastered it. Once mastered, this word will appear in their Mastered Words list.

Students are encouraged to play daily and will receive a bumble stamp for each consecutive day played. Once students have achieved a 5-day streak, they will receive a bonus of 100 honey pots that can be used to personalize or buy accessories for their avatar.

Mastery Zone acts as a tireless learning companion, continuously tracking each student's spelling and vocabulary gaps and automatically providing targeted practice until mastery is achieved, freeing teachers for richer classroom experiences.

• Fill critical knowledge gaps in spelling and vocabulary.
• Reduce your workload with automated homework.
