My 10 year old (resistant reader/writer) wrote a story for this contest! I played editor as any professional writer would have and now her story is on Youtube with some others as well! If she gets lots of "thumbs up" on her video then she might win a prize. Just doing this project has been encouraging and helpful to her, but obviously it would be encouraging to win a prize too. She also has the book they show at the end and has writen more stories independently in it! It is so encouraging to see her actually enjoy writing.
The full list of stories read aloud with pictures is linked
here and below (everyone had the same pictures to choose from and base their story off of.) Listen and watch and like your favorites!
Lily's story is called "Our Adventure in Photos, by Me, Cliff Pony"
The whole list is here - Thinking Tree Writing Contest 2016:
