    every contestant.
    2. There will be three sub rounds: easy, average, and difficult.
    3. There will be ten (10) words to be given for each sub rounds by the Bee Master.
    4. The Bee Master will pronounce each word twice and give an aid to word
    identification such as the function and definition and a sample sentence of each word.
    Countdown will start after the word has been pronounced the second time by the Bee
    Master
    5. Contestants will be given a maximum of 10 seconds to simultaneously write the word
    on the writing sheet provided.
    6. Should a participant wish to change the spelling that he/she has written down, the first
    one should be crossed out with one horizontal line and the new and final spelling be
    written clearly beside the crossed-out word. A participant is allowed to change his/her
    answer within the time allotted for a particular word.
    7. Those who spelled eight (8) out of ten (10) words correctly will continue in the next
    round, while those who correctly spelled only seven (7) words and below will be
    eliminated from the round.
    8. If in case, only one student has spelled eight (8) out of ten (10) words correctly,
    he/she shall be declared the Champion of the Spelling Bee regardless of round.
    9. Should a tie exist, the contestants shall go into a Clincher round. There will be five (5)
    words to be given for the clincher round by the Bee Master. The contestant who
    spelled four (4) out of five (5) words correctly shall be declared the winner of the tie
    and the Champion of the Spelling Bee.
