We started our 100 Day Writing Challenge a little earlier this year to give ourselves a bit more time to wrap things up at the end.
Officially, the event starts tomorrow and ends on May 31, but I gave my students a soft opening by providing them the chance to post from last Wednesday when we introduced the challenge, and I was impressed by the 31 kids who made time to write over the long Presidents Day weekend. It seems like we're going to have a good year.
And as always, I was amused and charmed by some of the content. Today we didn't have school, wrote one student. I'm not sure why we didn't, but I'm happy since I got to sleep late.
Today I thank the presidents for letting every person who goes to school have the day off, wrote another.
At least they are grateful!
