CFES Summer Writing
Challenge
CFES students and parents,
Mr. Carter wants to read what students think about during the Summer Break. He is challenging all CFES students to complete writing activities that they will turn in to him in August. Prizes will be awarded for each completed activity and students who complete all four writing activities will be eligible for the grand prize. Students who complete four writing activities will be entered into the CFES Principal for a Day contest. The writings entered into the contest will be evaluated and one student author will be selected as the Principal for a Day when we return to school. Keep writing and good luck.
Summer Writing Topics:
Complete four activities in order to be eligible to be CFES Principal for a Day.
Please be sure to follow the writing process (pre-write, draft, revise/edit, publish) in order to produce a well written piece.
1. Tell Mr. Carter what you want to be when you grow up. Describe three jobs that you think you would enjoy.
2. Who is your hero? Tell Mr. Carter why you admire that person.
3. Write a poem or song about an animal, person or a favorite place.
4. Write a tall tale with Mr. Carter as a major character. You can also illustrate the story if you wish.
5. Help Mr. Carter fix something. Write directions on how to fix something that is broken (you pick the item).
