Environmental Concern has kicked off Part 1 of our 5th annual Write On! Wetlands Challenge. This competition, designed to celebrate American Wetlands Month in May, challenges students to create a book written and illustrated by kids for kids! Part 1, for grades 6-8, is the Writers Challenge. Students write and submit a children's story based on a wetlands theme. And there's something suspicious in the swamp for this year's theme..all the entries must be in the form of a mystery story. The winning entry will be illustrated in Part 2, and published by Environmental Concern as a children's book. For more information, tips for writers, and full contest guidelines please visit our website www.wetland.org/education_contest.htm or email [email protected]. The deadline for entries is March 1, 2009. Sharpen your pencils and join Environmental Concern for "The Case of the Missing Wetlands!"
