The JEI Learning Center is having its annual writing contest on Saturday, Nov. 5.
JEI is hosting this contest for kids in grades 2-8 in all of its locations nationwide, including Canada.
“The contest will be happening across the country at the same time, it is a great chance for children to showcase their writing abilities by creating their own original pieces,” says Marisa Ro, Center Director of JEI Center Fresh Meadows.
Children in grades 2-5 will be tasked with writing a personal reflection essay, while children in grades 6-9 will be asked to reflect and respond to a piece of literature.
Registration for the contest is open now, and will end on Oct. 30. Check-in begins at 1:30pm, and the contest runs from 2:30 – 3:05pm. The grand prizewinner receives a $1000 scholarship and an iPad Air. Prizes will also be given to first, second and third place-winners. The winners will be announced Dec. 5.
This contest gives children a unique writing opportunity and encourages fun competition nationwide. The contest will let children know how they are performing in their writing, and allow them to prepare themselves for the future.
