Writing Contests for Kids

Monday, November 9, 2009

Posted by Ben Koch, M.Ed.

We have some very talented writers this year and I've encouraged some to look for writing opportunities, such as contests, outside of school. Here is a list of websites with information on great contests for students. Pay close attention to deadlines! I am happy to help kids with ideas once they have chosen a contest and focus.

Good luck!
