PBS Kids GO! Writers Contest
 Thanks, kids for writing stories and entering them in the 2012 PBS KIDS GO! Writers Contest. Watch the mail in June for an envelope just for you, with your own Certificate of Achievement and a note from us explaining what we like best about your story. One child from each grade level will go on to the national contest! Watch for information here, and read last year’s winners below! |
See the 2012 entry form here, or call 800-359-6900 and we will send a copy. The contest deadline is April 9, 2012.
Teachers are encouraged to have their students write their own stories and submit as a class. Those who do so will be entered to win a literacy kit! Look here for a PBS Kids GO! Writers Contest writing guide.
