Writing Challenge

Join the WriteReader Write-a-thon

 

WriteReader’s monthly write-a-thon inspires learners to challenge themselves by writing about whatever they want to share and encourages new learning by allowing them to explore previously unknown topics.

 

The write-a-thon kicks off in the first week of each month, and teachers are encouraged to submit their students’ books for a chance to win some great prizes!

 

Are your students unsure about what they want to write about? No worries; the write-a-thon also presents new writing prompts each month to get the creative juices flowing. Jump to the last section to check out this month’s writing prompts!
