The PBS KIDS Writers Contest is a
national-local contest designed to promote the advancement of children’s literacy
skills through hands-on, active learning. The contest encourages children in
grades K-3 in communities across the country to celebrate the power of creating
stories and illustrations by submitting their own original pieces. For nearly
20 years, Wisconsin kids have participated in PBS KIDS’ annual writing contest,
building their creative voices, and developing critical reading and writing
skills.
They are also planning a webinar for January 10th at 9 am for librarians to talk about the contest and how to do a “Writers & Illustrators Workshop” for children K – 3rd grade. More information to come.
If your library is interested in participating, please contact Holli Kirchner, Early Learning Services Manager at WPT, at 608-265-5035 or holli.kirchner@wpt.org
