Citizen Writers Contest

For all you writers out there, AdLit.org and Reading Rockets have a new writing contest. Citizen Writer focuses on citizenship and the American experience. The contest wants children and teens to "think and learn more about America's people, places, and ideals as they work on the prompts." The contest combines writing, music, and art and you choose which writing prompt you like best. There are four different writing prompts and the contest is open to Kindergarten through grade 12.




Sound like something you're interested in? Then visit Adlit.org or Reading Rockets to learn the official contest rules and read the prompts. Submit your entries by April 30, 2011. Good Luck!
