Mrs. P invites your class to write a story on the topic of HEROES for the 2018 contest theme, no less than 250 words and not to exceed 1,000 words. It may be fiction or non-fiction. Any classroom from Kindergarten through 4th grade may enter.
Just one story per classroom! It can be a collaborative story, or you can have your class vote on which child’s story to enter. And there’s no database to enter or permission slips to sign. You, the teacher, just need to email me the story.
Inspire your class by watching past entries of the contest on my Young Author playlist. Enjoy these amazing stories!
HOW TO ENTER: Email the story to MrsPstorytime @ gmail.com with the teacher name, grade, school name and address and a contact phone. Please state in the email that you have read the rules. If there is a twitter account for the teacher or school please include that. Please let us know if it is a collaborative class project or a story your class voted on as their favorite done by a student to enter. Remember just one entry per classroom.
