Saving the World Through Literacy!

Looking for a few good WRITING CONTESTS!

on February 16, 2012

 

I have amazing authors in my classes. And poets. And comic makers. And artists. And all around awesome kids.

The world doesn’t always stop to recognize them.  That’s a shame!

I am looking for some cool contests that my students can enter.

Below are the contests that I know about:

Promising Young Writers: http://www.ncte.org/awards/student/pyw

New to me–Barron Prize: http://www.barronprize.org/

I am the chair of the Leslie Walker Memorial Essay Contest (Georgia only): http://kmwp.org/Portals/0/KMWP_LW_CONTEST_FLYER.pdf

I also subscribe to this awesome Writing Kid mailing list:  www.fundsforwriters.com/writingkid.htm

I love River of Words: http://www.riverofwords.org/

What am I missing or forgetting about?
